Higher than normal demand will cause more electrons to flow through the load. This will cause the amperage to increase, thereby causing power to increase. A lightning strike on the primary line will cause this condition.

Why is high voltage a plus?

its because of transformers . they work with pulse


What are two uses of capacitors in an ac circuit?

power factor correction, and sometimes it is necessary to place capacitors in series with a line to counteract the natural inductance of the line - this allows more power to be transferred through that line.


How pass line is calculated in hot rolling mill?

Rolling schedule is the time sequence of passes of rolled piece through the mill respecting many constrains and limitations such as:* Limit separating force* Limit rolling torque* Bite angle* Flatness limits* Metallurgical limits* Specific limits(length of delay table, etc.)If all constrains are fulfilled and rolling schedule gives maximum productivity (minimum production time) and the desired product and its specifications are obtained, we can speak about optimum rolling schedule.

What are dangers of stealing electricity from the national electricity grid?

The same as stealing anything else. With the exception that you're deeling with high voltages and power. To steal electricity, you'd need to modify or create a connection to the electric grid. Depending on the magnitude of power you pull, this can be detectible by the power company immediately, or will be detected given enough time. But the main point is you have to get close to the line, which is a bad idea to say the least, unless you are trained, and have the proper protective equipment. Besides this, you face prosecution when (not if) caught.

What is an easy equation for finding the normal line?

The first thing you may want to do would be to find the tangent line to the function. The tangent line is a line that passes through a given point on a function, but does not touch any other point on the function (assuming the function is one to one). Assuming you have the tangent line, the normal line is simply perpendicular to the tangent line- it forms a 90 degree angle with the tangent line. One you have the tangent line and the point which it passes through, you can find the normal line. To obtain the perpendicular line to any function, take the inverse reciprocal of the slope (if your slope was 2, it is now -.5). After that, plug in your (x, y) coordinate, and you can solve for the constant b (assuming there is one). This should give the normal line to a tangent of at a point on a function.


What is the normal voltage of house electricity in the US?

The voltage in North America can be as low as 110 and as high as 125 volts. The average is about 115 to 117 volts. <><><>><> House voltage in the US is generally 120v line to neutral and 240v line to line. It is referred to as a "120/240v single phase service." Actual voltage can be as low as 110/220 or as high as 125/250.


Why do birds sitting on a power line not get electrocuted?

Birds do not get electrocuted when sitting on power lines because they are not completing a circuit for electricity to flow through. The electricity in power lines travels in a closed loop, and birds are not grounded so there is no path for the electricity to flow through them. Additionally, most power lines are insulated to prevent electricity from leaking out.


What is the difference between an electric line and a load in an electrical system?

In an electrical system, an electric line carries electricity from a power source to a load, which is a device that uses the electricity. The line is like a road that transports the electricity, while the load is like a destination where the electricity is used.


How is dsl service transmitted?

A (Digital Subscriber Line) is a service provided by most Internet Service Providers. You are required to have a phone line for this service. It sends data through the line in different frequencies than voice data. This is a much better choice than Dial-up.


What is a fuel line and fuel pump?

Both are parts of a car. The fuel pump is either situated in the fuel tank or sometimes in the engine of the car and works to pump the fuel from the tank to and around the engine. The fuel line is a thin long pipe witch the fuel does travel through to get from the fuel tank to the engine. the fuel pump sends the fuel through the fuel line.
