no, electrical tape is almost like rubber so the current cannot pass through it, i don't no what would happen if you used masking tape I'm guessing your covering up some open wires. the best would be electrical
to insulate from electircal shorts. also to tape peoples mouths shut, put on nipple, etc
Yes, it puts a thin rubber barrier between the wire and any type of conductor the wire could come in contact with thus making it insulated.
The tape over the wire helps, so that the wire doesn't hurt you when you mess with it.

Fish tape is a tool that electricians use to pull wire through a pipe or tube. This website talks more about it: http://electrical.about.com/od/electricaltools/a/fishtape.htm
There are many grades of electrical tape. Rolls from China are very thin and the adhesive does not have sticking power. This type of tape will shrink. It will also break down when exposed to sunlight as there is no UV component add when the tape is manufactured. Stick to 3M or an equivalent manufacturer. Their tape is treated for UV protection and will last years in direct sunlight. All tape will shrink when exposed to a heat source
Yes, a tape player typically has a magnetic head that reads the magnetic information encoded on the tape. The magnetic head uses a magnet to convert the magnetic signals on the tape into electrical signals that can be amplified and reproduced as sound.
yes, or tie together 2 condutors into one. Yes you can, but cover the two ends of the red wire with wire nuts and tape them up with electrical tape.
no
You replace them or use some duct tape or electrical tape
The best material to use on these types of connections is a rubber amalgamation tape. This can be purchased at any electrical supply house. After applying the rubber tape overlay it with ordinary electrical tape. The electrical tape has UV protection that will stand up under the sunshine and protect the rubber tape. When the electrical tape starts to look dried out and starts to crack just re install new electrical tape, the rubber tape will be alright and not need to be replaced.
Yes, but you should wrap the area that was previously covered by the wrapper and paper or plastic ring with electrical tape to avoid a possible short circuit. If you still have the paper or plastic ring, put it over the positive terminal and let the electrical tape cover it. Do not put tape over the terminals. Use only one layer of electrical tape so the battery will fit more easily in the battery compartment. If electrical tape makes the battery too big to fit into the compartment, you may use Scotch tape, but I would recommend electrical tape if it will fit.
Electrical wire is the type of wire that is used in electrical equipment. To strip the wires, you need to use wire strippers. There is also special tape called electrical tape that is used to secure the wire.
Masking tape isn't designed to be either insulating or watertight, so it's a really bad choice to use to tape electrical wiring together. What masking tape is designed for is paint masking then easy removal after the paint dries without leaving any residue. If you just temporarily want to tape the wires to a wall or something, it's fine, but using it on exposed wiring is a bad idea, and masking tape isn't designed for longtime service anyway. Masking tape is considered disposable, electrical tape is considered permanent. <<>> Electrical tape has an inherent insulation property. It comes in many thickness and temperature ratings. There are two main types in use in the electrical trade. The PVC tape is the everyday tape used for general insulating purposes. The second type is a rubber amalgamating tape. This type is used on large motor splices. Once the rubber tape is applied, it amalgamates into one mass of rubber to provide the proper insulation value. After the rubber tape is applied an over wrap of PVC tape is applied to provide wear protection to the splice.
Generally speaking, electrical tape, which is usually a polyvinyl, may be subject to heating inside the oven. If so, it could melt and possibly catch fire.
Duct tape is an insulator, but it's not the best, especially for some uses. When using tape for electrical uses, electrical tape is much better.
Nope
You can purchase cheap electrical tape at walmart.com or buy in lots at ebay.
Insulation tape is used to protect exposed electrical conductors or wires. Another term for it would be electrical tape. It is wrapped around wires and other electrical conductors to protect them.
yup, duct tape is not rated for electrical use
