What is the voltage source and what is the conductor in a circuit?
The voltage source is the source of the electricity. The conductor is what the electricity flows through to reach its destination. Example: A battery is a voltage source and an electrical wire is the conductor.
Can current pass throug one thick conductor?
Wire is sized to carry current, it doesn't matter whether the voltage is AC or DC. The larger the diameter of the wire the more current it is allowed to carry.
How do you calculate diameter of a copper wire conductor and how do we calculate resistance of a copper wire conductor of a particaular length?
You go to the NEC and look at the chart for developed length and the ambient temperature and the load factor and if it solid or stranded wire as stranded allows for more voltage
When a conductor is moved in a magnetic field a voltage will be induced on the conductor however current won't flow through the conductor unless the conductor is what?
moving
What is the process called in which a conductor cuts across a magnetic field and produces a voltage?
We call it induction when we pass a conductor through a magnetic field to produce voltage.
What three things effect the value of the applyed voltage in a conductor?
Lenght, diameter and material of the conductor.
Why twin moose conductor used in EHV Lines?
The twin moose type of conductor has by far the greatest diameter of any conductor. This allows it to carry more voltage than other types without melting or shorting. Therefore, it is the approved type of conductor for extra high voltage lines.

What is the relationship between voltage and MA?
The "current" through any conductor is voltage across the conductor/conductor's resistance .The current is measured in "Amperes" (amps)."MA" stands for "Milliamps". There are 1,000 of those in one whole ampere.So, the current through a conductor is1,000 times the voltage across the conductor/conductor's resistance . . . in MA
How the current depend on diameter?
The current flowing through a conductor is influenced by its diameter due to its effect on resistance. A larger diameter reduces resistance, allowing more electrons to flow, resulting in a higher current for a given voltage. According to Ohm's Law (I = V/R), as resistance decreases with increasing diameter, the current (I) increases when voltage (V) is constant. Therefore, wider conductors can carry greater currents more efficiently.
Will an increase of applied voltage decrease the resistance of a copper conductor?
No, the resistance is fixed by the cross section and length of the conductor and does not vary with voltage.
How do you calculate the amount of current a conductor can carry?
The amount of current a conductor can carry is determined by factors such as the material, size, and temperature of the conductor. It is calculated using Ohm's Law (I = V / R), where I is the current, V is the voltage, and R is the resistance of the conductor. The conductor's ampacity rating also provides guidance on the maximum current it can safely carry without overheating.
When a voltage is applied to a conductor free electrons?
When a voltage is applied to a conductor, free electrons gain energy and move in response to the electric field created by the voltage. This movement of electrons constitutes an electric current flowing through the conductor.
