Why is The voltage across the empty socket is equal to the line voltage?

all the sockets are always connected in parallel,due to this the voltage across each soket is same. when any socket is open then there is no voltage loss..so the votage is same like line voltage.


Why a lamp cannot run with the telephone line voltage?

A lamp can be run by power from a telephone line.


What two things happen when the number of appliances connected to the multiple socket is increased?

The amperage of the circuit increases and the voltage drop across the appliances will tend to increase.


What is the voltage of telephone line?

I'd say it wouldn't be -40 volt, but in fact 40 volt. I'm guessing you measured it with a multimeter and had your polarity (positive/negative) mixed up when you placed the leads on the telephone line. -------------------------------------------------------------- The nominal voltage between tip and ring on the telephone line is 48 VDC (it is provided by a 24 cell lead acid battery in the central office) but this can be reduced by line drop by as much as 9 VDC depending on how far you are from the central office. Tip is connected to the positive side of the battery and ring is connected to the negative side of the battery. The tip and ring twisted pair is isolated from ground, so either can be used as your multimeter reference as long as you are aware of polarity so the reading of the multimeter will make sense.


Three identical bulbs are connected in parallel across a 12-V battery If one of the bulbs were removed from its socket then the potential difference measured across the empty socket would be?

12V. Every resistor in a parallel circuit shares the same voltage. It is the current that gets divided.

How much voltage is in a socket?

The voltage in a socket can be any voltage that you want. The load that connects into the socket must be stated. Without this information the question can not be answered.


What is the maxamin voltage you can draw from a 32 amp socket?

The maximum voltage you can draw from a 32 amp socket depends on the voltage rating of the socket. For example, if it is a standard 240-volt socket, the maximum voltage you can draw is 240 volts. It's important to check the voltage rating of the socket to ensure you are not exceeding its limits.

How to test a light socket with a multimeter?

To test a light socket with a multimeter, set the multimeter to the voltage setting. Insert one probe into the hot wire slot and the other probe into the neutral wire slot. If the multimeter reads a voltage, the socket is working. If there is no voltage, the socket may be faulty and further inspection is needed.

How do you test a standard house light socket with a voltage meter?

Carefully! Set your voltage meter to the nearest setting above 120 volt AC. Turn the power on to the socket. Take the lead marked "common" on your meter and touch it to the shell of the socket, that's the metal circular part which the lamp screws into. At the same time take the other "positive" meter lead and touch the tip of it to the brass electrode in the center top of the socket. You should read 110-120 volts. Be REAL careful no to cross your two meter leads or you'll create a dead short and it'll blow up in your face! Wear safety glasses when doing this.
