To find the actual reading with a voltmeter it must be parallel to the bulb or power source in the circuit but for an ammeter you can put it anywhere in the circuit

Why is it good to a ground on a receptacle?

Not only is it good to put a ground on a receptacle it is mandatory by the electrical code rules. The ground is installed to provide a low impedance return to the distribution panel to trip the breaker supplying the circuit in case of a ground fault occurring on the circuit.


How many outlets can you have on a gfi breaker?

Depends on the breaker. If the load at the outlets is unknown then the standard rules of 80% apply. You can only load a circuit 80% of it's maximum value. For instance, if you're connecting your GFCI outlets to a 15 amp breaker you can only have a maximum of 12 outlets. If it's a 20 Amp breaker then you're allowed up to 16 outlets and so on. In the US, you are limited to 13 receptacles on a 20 amp circuit and 10 receptacles on a 15 amp circuit in commercial or industrial installations. Any or all of these can be gfci-protected. You can install one gfci, the first one from the panel, and protect any or all the others from that one.

Is it Missouri law to have a legal form to answer a civil lawsuit?

It's not a "law" to have a legal form to answer a lawsuit in Missouri, at least not in the sense of a statutory law passed by the legislature. But forms are *required* by Court Rules for most types of procedures. If you don't follow the Court Rules for your court, the court may dismiss your case. Each Circuit Court in Missouri has its own set of Court Rules. You can find them at the related link below. Find the Court Rules for your circuit or county, and read them to see which forms are required for different types of cases.


Do you have to follow the baggage policy of a connecting flight?

Not if your bags are checked though via the airline. If you have to get baggage and then recheck it yourself, then yes, even if it is on the same airline. One airline refused to take our bags for a connecting flight till we emptied 5 kilos from the bag. Most American airlines are lax on these rules though.


Does a fire alarm control panel need a dedicated branch circuit?

Under the NFPA Fire Alarm Code, the control panel must have its own dedicated circuit, the circuit must be labeled "Fire Alarm Circuit" and the handle of the circuit breaker must be colored red. Other rules apply in jurisdictions that adopt other standards, or for other types of fire alarms. For example, under New Hampshire Fire Code, you are PROHIBITED from installing self-contained smoke alarms on a dedicated circuit.
