When connecting two wires can glue be used and still have an electrical current pass through the wires?
You would have to be crazy to do this. Go to your local hardware store and buy connectors made for the purpose. Only make connections inside an electric box, not just at random places in a cable. Make sure to turn off power before doing this. Both wire nuts and push type connectors are available in any hardware store.
If wires are lower current in an appliance or devise you may be able to solder and tape or use heat shrink tubing.

What else can I help you with?
What is a shunt resistor used for?
A shunt resistor is used to carry a majority of the electrical current away from the outlet. This causes the risks of electric shock to be down significantly, but still not completely gone.
What is Reverse Saturation Current of a diode?
When a diode is operated as reverse bias the current flow is almost completely blocked. A small amount of current is still able to travel in reverse through the diode and this is referred to as the reverse current saturation.
Will a capacitor increase amps?
A capacitor does not increase amps; instead, it stores and releases electrical energy. In an AC circuit, capacitors can influence the current flow by affecting the phase relationship between voltage and current, which can lead to higher apparent current (amps) in certain conditions. However, they do not increase the actual current supplied by a power source. The overall current still depends on the power supply and the load connected to the circuit.
What happens if you accidentally reverse the wiring in a light switch?
A single pole, single throw light switch simply interrupts the electrical current. It makes absolutely no difference which way you connect the wires, it will still interrupt a circuit when connected in series.
Why does resistance of human body decrease to electricity when body is wet?
If you increase resistance, current is restricted (river is damed up). If you decrease restistance, current flows faster (river is wide and open). With water on our skin the current can travel across our skin instead of having to move through our bodies. The current has found a new path. Not inside our bodies but outside our bodies where there is much less resistance. Which is better? A large highway with a traffic jam or the side road next to the highway with the traffice jam The side road is effected by the traffic jam, but is still faster than the highway.
If there are 2 points with different potential energy will there still be an electrical current through the circuit?
Not necessarily. The two points with potential difference, will have to be connected via a conductor, for current to flow.Provided that a circuit exists, then current WILL flow.
Would there still be a current if rubber tubing replaced a copper wire?
No, It would not still work because, Rubber isn't a conductor. Rubber is an insulator. Though if you put a copper wire there and put rubber around it there will still be a electrical current that flows through.
How can an ohmmeter be damaged?
By connecting it to a circuit with the power still applied. Ohm meters work best when the component under test is removed from the circuit to eliminate parallel paths of current through other components.
What is the current status of the manuscript submitted through ScholarOne, is it still awaiting decision?
The current status of the manuscript submitted through ScholarOne is still awaiting decision.
How do electrons in a metal wire behave, both in the presence and absence of an electrical current?
Electrons in a metal wire move freely in the presence of an electrical current, flowing in a specific direction. In the absence of an electrical current, electrons still move randomly within the wire due to thermal energy, but there is no net flow of charge.
In a solenoid, will there be a magnetic field if there is no current flowing through it?
Yes, a solenoid will still have a magnetic field even if there is no current flowing through it.
What is an electrolyte that is completely dissolved in a solution and still can conduct a sharp electrical current called?
A strong electrolyte, such as a strong acid, strong base, or soluble salt, that is completely dissociated into ions in a solution is able to conduct a sharp electrical current. This high conductivity is due to the presence of free-moving ions that allow the flow of electricity through the solution.
Can the connecting rod have a small groove an still be ok?
Any damage on a connecting rod means it must be replaced!!!
How does electricity travel through material?
Electricity travels through materials by using the movement of charged particles, usually electrons. When a voltage is applied to a material, it creates an electric field that forces electrons to move in a particular direction, carrying the electrical current. In conductive materials like metals, electrons are free to move, while in insulating materials, the electrons are bound to their atoms but can still carry some current.
What is a parallel circuit and how it works?
A parallel circuit is a type of electrical circuit where the components are connected in such a way that the current has more than one path to flow. This allows the current to divide and flow through each individual component independently. In a parallel circuit, if one component fails, the others can still operate because they are connected separately to the power source.
Is a filament of a light bulb glows when an electric current flows through it is a chemical change?
It is a physical change brought about by the exitation of molecules producing heat and light. A general rule of thumb is that a physical change can be repeated on an article and chemical change cannot. Remove the current from a filament and it is still a filament.
Do you have to hook up a ground wire to a tamper proof outlet?
Yes, it is important to connect the ground wire to a tamper-proof outlet to ensure proper safety and functionality. The ground wire provides a path for electrical current to safely discharge in case of a fault, protecting against electrical shock and preventing damage to the electrical system.
