The source is finite. Any real world power source is finite. You will see the same thing with a battery, for example (the battery has internal resistance).

If you have no voltage at that recepticle, the resistance should approach infinite due to an open circuit (open breaker, fuse, broken conductor, etc.).

Can you use ohm-meter to measure a resistance between the neutral line N and the ground E?

If the meter is sensitive enough and there is a resistance between the neutral and ground then the meter should be able to detect it.


Can reverse polarity burn a tv set?

If, by 'reverse polarity', you mean the accidental reversal of the line and neutral conductors at the socket outlet or receptacle, then the answer is no.


How do you wire a circuit so that the switch only controls the second receptacle and the first receptacle is always energized?

You will need a receptacle that you can wire each outlet separately (not jumpered). You would then wire the switch in series on the line conductor with the outlet you want switchable. Wire the other outlet directly to the power source. You can jumper the neutral from one outlet to the other.


What is a line to line voltage?

In a 3 phase system, the voltage measured between any two phase is called line to line voltage.And the voltage measured between line to neutral is called phase to neutral (line to neutral) voltage.AnswerThere is no such thing as a 'phase-to-phase' or a 'phase-to-neutral' voltage. The correct terms are 'line-to-line' and 'line-to-neutral'.The voltage between any two line conductors is called a line voltage.In a three-phase, three-wire, system, the line voltage is numerically equal to the phase voltage.In a three-phase, four-wire, system, the voltage between any line conductor and the neutral conductor is called a phase voltage. The line voltage is 1.732 times larger than the phase voltage.


What is voltage between earth and line?

In a typical residential situation there is 220 to 240 volts between the two hot wires that are typically red and black and 110 to 120 volts between neutral and either black or red. The voltage between neutral and earth should be zero.


What is the power line voltage between phase and earthing?

It is the same as phase to neutral. As the neutral is earthed at the electricity suppliers transformer.


What does a 14-50R receptacle look like?

A 14-50R receptacle is commonly used for electric stoves and RVs. It typically has four straight blade prongs: two hot prongs, a neutral prong, and a ground prong. The prongs are arranged in a vertical line, with the ground prong typically being L-shaped.


An electric iron is plugged into a receptacle that has 110 V present. If the voltage loss from the panel to the receptacle is 6 V the line voltage at the panel is?

To find the line voltage at the panel, you need to add the voltage loss to the voltage at the receptacle. Since the receptacle has 110 V and there is a voltage loss of 6 V, the line voltage at the panel is 110 V + 6 V = 116 V.

How are voltages imported into installations through the supply neutral conductor?

A 'voltage' is another name for a potential difference. As the name implies, a potential difference exists between two different points or, in the case of an electrical installation, between the line conductor and the neutral conductor. So the neutral does not 'import voltages'. Voltages exist between the line (hot) conductor and the neutral conductor.


How do you install a 12v power receptacle on your motorcycle?

Run a fused power line from the receptacle to either the battery for constant Hot or to the fuse box for an ignition controlled receptacle and ground the receptacle either by mounting on a metal surface or run a ground wire from the body of the receptacle to a good chasis ground


How you calculate the line -line voltage?

Line-to-line voltage in a three-phase system is calculated using the formula ( V_{LL} = \sqrt{3} \times V_{LN} ), where ( V_{LN} ) is the line-to-neutral voltage. This relationship arises because the line-to-line voltage represents the voltage difference between two phases, while the line-to-neutral voltage is the voltage from a phase to the neutral point. If you have the line-to-line voltages directly measured, you can also use the voltage differences between any two phases to determine the line-to-line voltage.
