What wire gauge is used for a toaster?
16 awg can be used for the toaster
Wire coild inside an electric toaster gets hot when a current flows through it the property of this wire to produce lots of heat from electricity is measured in?
ohms is ohms not used to measure resistance in the wire?
Why are electric heaters 100 percent efficient?
All the power absorbed by the heating element and the connecting wire is converted into heat, leading to the 100% efficiency figure.
When connecting chain switch what is done with the neutral wire and white wire from ballast?
no
Is plus or Minus Ground on lamp socket?
The term plus or minus is usually a term designated to DC Sources. The terminology for AC systems in laymen terms is neutral and "hot". On a lamp socket, for safety reasons the lamp shell should be connected to the neutral wire and the "hot' wire connected to the bottom centre contact point. In North America this is done automatically by connecting the white wire the silver coloured terminal and the black coloured wire to the brass coloured terminal. If the lamp socket is on a table lamp and it is wired with lamp cable, the neutral is identified by the raised rib on one of the two wires.
What causes heat to be produced in appliances such as lights toasters and ovens?
Heat is a form of energy and in appliances like toasters energy is transmitted into the metal of the toaster causing the heat. Resistance to the flow of the electricity through the coils of wire in the toaster create heat. ---/////--- more coils equals more heat. ---/////////////---.
Examples of resistive heating?
In a toaster, the house current from the outlet passes through a wire with some resistance. Household electricity is supplied at a nominal 117 volts AC. If 'R' is the resistance of the wire in the toaster, then the power (heat) dissipated by the wire is E2/R = (117)2/R watts of heat. Notice that as long as the voltage remains constant, MORE resistive heat is dissipated from a SMALLER resistance.

How can you heat a wire to about 100 degrees Celsius with a battery?
Simply connect the wire between the two terminals of the battery. The wire will get plenty hot, and probably even shine like a toaster, but probably not for long.
Wire coild inside an electric toaster gets hot when a current flows through it the property of this wire to produce lots of heat from electricity is measured in?
ohms is ohms not used to measure resistance in the wire?
What is the difference between connecting wire and heating element?
The connecting wire will be thicker and made of a low resistance material to allow electricity to flow with minimal losses. The element requires a thinner wire with higher resistivity which causes it to heat when electricity passes through.
What are the two electromagnetic waves does your toaster use?
Toasters and incandescent (old fashioned) light bulbs are very similar devices.Both of them use electric current passing through a wire to make the wire emitheat and light. In the light bulb, we use the light, and the heat is a nuisance.In the toaster, we use the heat, and we don't much care about the light.
What is definition of not connecting wire?
Anything that is not connecting wire qualifies as not connecting wire. Examples are a table, a house, a mountain, a planet etc.
How do you change glow plugs on a peugeot 405?
remove the connecting wire - 8mm nut i think, then 10 or 13 mm deep socket on each one and un-do
How do you heat up a wire?
passing electricity through it by connecting t between the poles of a battery to make a circuit,in this case a short circuit.
What wire is hot on the cord going to the lamp socket?
The hot wire's cover is smooth and connected to what I call the "button" at the bottom of the socket. The neutral wire's cover has ridges and is connected to the screw shell of the socket.
How do you wire a wire to a wire?
If you are connecting 120 volts, you connect the black wire to the breaker, white wire to the neutral bar, and ground wire to the ground bar. If you are connecting 240 volts connect the black & white wires to the breaker, & ground wire to the ground bar.
