This shouldn't occur. If only one laptop charger is causing the problem, there may be a short in this charger. If you have tried multiple chargers, I suggest looking at the laptop and seeing if it is the cause.

"All of the electronics" on one breaker should trip if there is a short in the laptop or charger. The whole house (main breaker at the top of the electric box, usually) should not trip. If this is occurring, you may have a problem with the particular breaker to the plug you are using as well. If this is occurring, I suggest calling an electrician unless you know what you're doing.

Why does your electric trip when you plug in a power saw?

because when you plug in a power saw,it has to struggle from the inside the saw your electrics trip out when there is to much power in use, otherwise if your using an adapter or extension they may be faulty or it could be a faulty saw, i would start by checking any leads have not been gouged or have cuts in them including the wire leading to your saw.

What is a threaded socket?

In electronics - it's a socket that has a thread on the outside - so that a plug with the same thread can be screwed into it, thus preventing accidental removal. One example would be the connector in your house for cable TV. The box on the wall has a threaded 'stud' socket - into which is screwed a plug, attached to the cable which goes to your TV.


What is the difference between rectified ac and dc?

Dc or direct current is and electrical current flowing in only one direction. Examples would be batteries or solar cells. ac or alternating current is current flowing or "alternating" in more than one direction. An example is the outlet you plug a cord into to power devices or appliances in your home or businesses. rectification of these is simply the conversion of one to the other, because sometimes the device your trying to power needs one type of current and the only available type current is the other. So in essence you have to convert or "rectify" one power source into one usable for your purposes. An example of this is a laptop. A laptop or any other type of mobile computer uses a battery for power, which is direct current. In order to keep your laptop battery charged you must plug in the ac adapter in a wall socket near by. The problem is your laptop uses direct current and what you are about plug your adapter into to power or charge your mobile computer is going to be alternating current. The two are not interchangeable. The solution lies with the actual ac adapter itself. If you'll notice there is a small to medium size box in the middle of the cord. The box is designed to convert, or "rectify" the type of current going from the wall to your mobile computer from ac to dc power.
