What is the aluminum wire equivalent to?
In the electrical trade aluminum wire is equivalent to copper wire as it is also used to carry current. To carry the same current as copper wire aluminum wire is up sized to meet the same ampacity.
How much current carry 1 sq mm copper cable?
2 A
35 sq mm copper wire current carrying capacity?
It can carry upto 100 Ampere.
What part of a circuit is the wire cable or switch?
Wire is the transition material used to carry the electric current; the switch is the controller of that current.
Does plastic protect you from electric current?
No, practically all plastic is an insulator. An insulator does not carry any electrical currents. A conductor can carry a current. "What plastics are conductive?", you may ask -- see link below.
Does copper wire carry electric current?
It is a conductor & common in wiring.
What matter has the ability to carry an electric current?
An electrical conductor has the ability to carry an electric current. Most of the best conductors are metals such as copper. Water containing ions can also conduct an electric current (which lead-acid batteries rely on)
What is a material that will carry an electric current called?
A material that will carry an electric current is called a conductor. Conductor materials have high electrical conductivity, allowing the flow of electric charges with minimal resistance. Examples of conductors include metals such as copper, aluminum, and silver.
Do copper carry current?
Yes, copper is a good electrical conductor.
What does copper wire do in an electrical circuit?
Because the metal Copper is a very good conductor - of both electricity and heat - copper wire can be used to carry an electric current in an electric circuit. The electric current consists of a flow of electrons.
Electric current in a copper wire is normally composed of what?
Electron current in a copper wire is normally composed of electrons.
What does an electric current Carry?
Electric current carries electric charge. Actually to say it in the right sense, we have to say that electric current is the rate of flow of electric charges
Why does conduct of electricity require a cord?
Electric current is the movement of electrons. Various materials can conduct current, but the best materials are metals, because they have plenty of electrons which can move freely. Electric appliances, therefore, are provided with cords which contain metallic strands (usually copper) which carry the current.
Does copper get heated when electric current is passed through?
yes it does
What happens to copper wire because of the moving magnet?
The copper wire carries an electric current.
What is the example of electrically conductive?
Copper or similar that can carry current
How much ac current can 2 copper conducters carry?
It depends on the cross-sectional are of the conductors -the bigger, the more current they can carry.
