What happens when a start capacitor fails?

An open circuit, by definition, has no continuity, therefore there is no current flow. A failed capacitor in an open circuit would have absolutely no effect.


What is the difference between a fail open valve and a fail closed valve?

Lets liken this to a garden hose, a hose in the normally open position has water flowing through it until it is closed by turning the spigot off, normally closed is the reverse. Oddly enough when it comes to an electronic relay the opposite is true, whereas the switch is in the open (normally open) position therefore having no current passing through it until a switch to close the circuit and allow current to flow. Normally closed has current flowing at all times until the switch interrupts it stopping the flow of electricity.


What will happen if relief valve in hydraulic circuit fails?

when relief valve fails open the system will have nopressure resulting in weak hydraulic operation and if it fails closed( that is the relief valve stuck closed) itwill result in very high system pressure resulting in a very high load on the pump and the enginerunning or driving it.Muawiah Itum


What is the maximum current that can flow through a fuse?

A current rating of a fuse is designed to open a circuit at a specific current flow. This rating is imprinted on the fuse and lets you know what the maximum amount of current the fuse is designed to open at. A fuse is in the circuit to protect the conductor that the current flows through. Never over fuse a conductor's current carrying capacity.


What is generally not a possible condition in an electric circuit?

Current cannot flow through an open circuit.

What happens when the thermostat fails?

When the thermostat in your car fails it usually fails to open which in turn does not allow radiator water to pass through the engine and cool it, so the engine over heats.

What device used to open a circuit if too much current flows through it?

A circuit breaker is a device used to open a circuit if too much current flows through it.


What is it called when a current doesn't flow through a poor conductor?

When current does not flow through a poor conductor, it is known as an open circuit. An open circuit occurs when there is a break in the electrical path, preventing the current from completing its flow.


What will happen to a buzzer connected to an open circuit?

If a buzzer is connected to an open circuit, it will not receive any electrical current and will not produce any sound because the circuit is incomplete. In an open circuit, there is a break in the path, so the electric current cannot flow to power the buzzer.


How does series circuit travel?

In a series circuit, the electric current flows through each component in sequence. This means that the current passes through one component before moving on to the next one. If one component fails or is removed, the circuit becomes open and no current can flow.


What happen If the Centrifugal switch of a two value capacitor motor using two capacitors fails to open?

I think you over-laod and blow the capacitor


Is there actually current flowing through the return wire?

Yes, there is a current flow through he return wire in a closed circuit. The only time there is no current flow through the return wire is when the circuit is open.


Will an electrical current move through an open circuit or a closed circuit?

Can you cut open a cell?

Cells are not atoms; you can indeed cut them open. This can happen naturally through a variety of processes.


Why does the fuse not blow out when the switch is left open?

When the switch is left open, the circuit is incomplete, and no current flows through the fuse. Without current flowing through the fuse, there is no excessive heat generated to cause it to blow. The fuse only blows when there is an overload or short circuit in the circuit that causes excessive current to flow through it.
