In order to get copper hot, you need a substantial powerdissipated by the copper.
Voltage alone is not the issue. You need to determine voltage across the copper, as well as current through the copper. With these two pieces of information, you can calculate the power in watts, or joules per second. Then you consider the thermal situation to decide if that power is going to create a temperature of a certain point.
What else can I help you with?
In an IEC-320 plug which wire carries electrical voltage?
the hot wire carries the electrical voltage
Is a copper wire a ground wire?
Yes, if it is not an insulated wire. If it is bare copper it is always ground. But the hot and neutral wire are also copper, they are just insulated.
What size ground wire should I use for a 50 amp hot tub panel?
# 10 bare copper.
How do you tell the hot wire when both are black?
When both wires are black, you can identify the hot wire using a multimeter or a voltage tester. First, ensure the power is turned off at the breaker. Then, turn the power back on and carefully test each wire with the voltage tester; the wire that shows a voltage reading is the hot wire. Alternatively, if you have access to a ground wire, the black wire connected to the ground can be identified as the hot wire, while the other is typically neutral. Always exercise caution and consider consulting a professional if unsure.
What size hot wires neutral wire and ground wire do you need to feed a 200 amp single phase sub panel coming from a 400 amp service?
For a 200 amp single-phase subpanel, you typically need to use 2 AWG copper wire or 4 AWG aluminum wire for the hot wires. The neutral wire should be the same size as the hot wires, so 2 AWG copper or 4 AWG aluminum is recommended. The ground wire should generally be at least 6 AWG copper or 4 AWG aluminum, but it's best to consult local electrical codes for specific requirements. Always ensure compliance with local regulations and consider consulting a licensed electrician.
What is the ac voltage reading between the bare copper wire and the hot black wire 120 vac or zero volt?
Should be about 120 VAC.
How can you determine which wire is hot when both wires are black?
To determine which wire is hot when both wires are black, you can use a voltage tester or a multimeter to check for voltage. The wire that shows a voltage reading is the hot wire. Make sure to follow proper safety precautions when working with electrical wires.
Why is copper used for hot water pipes?
Copper is used as hot water pipes because the copper will not corrode when the hot water goes through the pipes
What two metals are commonly used in their purest form?
Copper (electrical wiring and hot water pipes) and aluminum (high voltage cables and soda drink cans).
Why is copper used for water pipes?
Copper is used as hot water pipes because the copper will not corrode when the hot water goes through the pipes
When did High Voltage Hot Rod Show happen?
High Voltage Hot Rod Show happened in 2009.
When was High Voltage Hot Rod Show created?
High Voltage Hot Rod Show was created on 2009-01-19.
Why is my Pilot light on but no hot water?
If the pilot light is on and no hot water, then the regulator is not turning the gas flow on. The commonest cause for this is a faulty thermocouple. This is a thin copper tube that's heated by the pilot light and relays a voltage to the regulator. This can be changed by a competent handyman in about 1/2 hour. The part you need is available in many plumbing stores, best one is Honeywell Universal Thermocouple, costing $8-10. Installation is intricate and you need a good flashlight, very small wrenches and patience. The copper tube is delicate, be careful not to kink it.
Copper wire and heat makes?
Hot copper wire. HTH. HAND.
How fast does copper dissolve in hot water?
depends on your definition of hot
How much copper is in a hot water heater?
"How much" as a question is quite vague. Some hot water heaters are comprised of copper only. So this now depends on the size of the hot water heater. Some hot water heaters have no copper whatsoever.
Why do you use copper to make jam?
Generally food is cooked in copper or copper bottom pans because the metal distributes the heat evenly. Fructose (fruit sugar) burns easily so you don't want any hot spots.
