How can birds safely sit on electric wires?
Birds can safely sit on electric wires because they do not provide a path for electricity to flow through their bodies. The electricity flows through the wires and does not pass through the birds unless they touch another object that is grounded.
Why don't birds get shock while they sit on electric transmission wires?
no they dont
Why are birds not harmed by the large amount of electric current passing through the wires?
i think (not sure) their wires are made of insulator.......
Why doesn't birds get electric shock when they land on cables?
The voltage difference between the birds legs maybe very small. The shock comes when the voltage difference is large like between two different wires. Birds don't usually put their feet on different wires.
How many people get killed by electric?

How come birds on electric wires dont get electrocuted?
For an electric current to pass through the bird's body, there must be a potential difference (voltage) across its legs. But its legs are connected to a very good conductor which means that the bird's legs must be at the same potential -no potential difference, no shock!
Do ants eat electric wires?
No, ants do not eat electric wires. They are not attracted to the materials in electric wires and are more interested in foraging for food sources such as plants, other insects, or sugary substances. However, they may come into contact with wires while exploring their environment.
Name something people try to avoid walking under?

How are electric wires manufactured?
Electric wires are manufactured in various ways. One of the most common methods is the strip twist where wires are enhanced to hold mechanical loads.Ê
Who fixes electric poles and wires?
Electric poles and wires are usually maintained and repaired by electric utility companies, such as power companies or municipal electric departments. These organizations have trained technicians and lineworkers who are responsible for installing, maintaining, and fixing electric poles and wires to ensure a reliable electricity supply.
Does electricity flow through wires?
Electric current flows through wires, but to transmit electric power you need two wires with a voltage between them, connected to a power source.
