Why can you use electrical devices without getting shocked?
To receive a shock from electrical devices you have to become part of the electrical circuit. Most electrical devices come in two categories. One, the device is grounded and the other is the device is double insulated.The grounded devices have their metallic frames grounded. On a short circuit fault this will trip the breaker and isolate the device's fault before you have a chance to ground out the device by touching it.The double insulated device has two covers that protect the user from shock. The double insulation type of protection is usually used on hand held power tools.
How can you avoid getting shocked because of static electricity?
actually yes!... you can... although it will be consider a weird thing to do. Constantly be touching wood. Never, if you don't want to be shocked, touch metal without touching wood first. There are other ways to stop getting shocked by static electricity. One way is to put lotion on exposed skin areas. See the Related Link for more ideas.
What is a time switch used for?
A time switch is used for turning electrical devices on or off in a house without a person touching a switch. The only thing you have to do is set a default time at which the device doesn't let any more electricity flow through it.
Can a ceiling fan be installed without an outlet box?
No, a home ceiling fan as with all permanent devices joined into the electrical system, the splice must be made in a junction box. The exemptions are electric baseboard heaters and appliances that are hard wired directly to the unit.
What object is not an electrically neutral?
A object without electrical charges.
How do you put in a cord without getting shocked?

What electrical devices could people easily live without?
a phone
Do devices operate on power or current?
Electrical devices use power to operate, but power does not exist without current. Alternately, if current is flowing, power is being stored or used by some electrical device.
What constitutes a complete electrical circuit?
A complete electrical circuit occurs when it is possible for electrical current to flow through the electrical devices in it.
Why you called it solid state switch?
Solid state refers to electrical / electronic devices without moving parts.
What is the importance of electrical energy?
It is used in modern society as the main method to transport energy. Also, many devices use the electrical energy directly, without further conversion.
Is it possible to make electrical gadgets without the help of element?
Electrical gadgets often contain hydrogen- not in the electrical components themselves but in the plastics used for example in insulators and structural components. The electrical components contain conducting meterials such a s metals and for elctronic devices semiconductors.

How do you wire a dog fence with a gate so the dog can go over the wire without getting shocked?
turn off the box that's connected to the wire.
What does power quality determine?
Power quality determines the suitability of electrical power to devices. It's function is to determine that the power function is supplied to allow devices to run properly without significant loss of performance.
