What is the difference between the transmission line and feeder?

Think of a river getting fed by streams and creeks. These feeders increase the water flowing in the river like electrical feeders increase the current in the transmission line.


Can two separate wires in parallel be used to increase the amperage capacity?

Yes they can but the electrical code states that the wires can only be 1/0 AWG and larger.


How is electrical resistance decreased?

Ways to reduce electrical resistance: increase the diameter of the conductor, decrease or increase the temperature of conductor (depending on its thermal characteristics), decrease the length of the conductor. A change in the material out of which the conductor is made can decrease resistance, too. And there is the phenomenon of superconductivity. In a simple circuit the resistance can be lowered by adding resistors in parallel. The total circuit resistance will then decrease. You can also reduce resistance by substituting resistors of lower value, or by adjusting a potentiometer, or pot, to a lower value.


If you increase or decrease the frequency what effect on electrical machin?

If you're talking about an electric motor, increasing the frequency will increase the speed of rotation of the motor, and decreasing the frequency will decrease the speed of rotation of the motor. The other way of controlling a motor is to control the current; increasing the current increases speed, decreasing current decreases speed.

Why do the lights flicker when an appliance turns on?

The lights flicker when an appliance turns on because the sudden increase in power demand causes a temporary drop in voltage in the electrical system, affecting the brightness of the lights.


When you add appliance to circuit you add what?

When you add an appliance to a circuit, you increase the electrical load on that circuit. It's important to ensure that the circuit can handle the additional load to prevent overloading and potential hazards like tripped breakers or fires. It may be necessary to add a new circuit or redistribute the appliances to balance the electrical load.

Does voltage supplied at 300v when it should be 240v increase your electricity bill?

Yes, if your electrical appliance is designed to operate at 240V but is receiving 300V, it will consume more power than intended, leading to an increase in your electricity bill. The higher voltage can cause the appliance to operate less efficiently and consume more energy. It is advisable to ensure that your appliances receive the correct voltage to avoid unnecessary energy consumption.


How does your sim get electrocuted in The Sims 3?

if your Sim has the unlucky trait it increases your chances of getting electrocuted and dying. Also if your sim tries to fix an electrical appliance it could be elecrocuted. The chances of this happening increase if the sim is 'clumsy'.
