nothing as pennies do not fit into the wall outlets...they will however fit into CAR 12V ROUND outlets
Normally nothing, as long as the insulation is intact and the other end is protected from the weather. If the cable is unprotected, it may start arcing at the bare ends. If your consumer unit is protected by a breaker, it may trip out. A fuse may blow. As long as the outlet conforms to code, nothing should happen there.
In this experiment, the control group would be the penny! The independent variable is the substance/water on the penny, and the dependent is how many drops the penny takes.
Grounding is a direct path (that is, a wire, usually green) from the electrical outlet or switch back to the service panel, which sends stray current back to the service panel and then to the power plant along with the normal alternating current. This gives stray current a means to return to earth (which is what all electricity wants to do). If this path were not available, stray current would remain static until a pathway showed up (like, your finger, which would result in a shock). So, grounding protects you from dangerous shocks. Bonding is connecting any metal or electrically conductive material to a grounding wire. An electrical outlet is attached to a metal box. A grounding wire is connected to the outlet. Its purpose is to return stray current from any device plugged into the outlet--like a toaster--back to the service panel. Connecting the metal box that contains the outlet to the outlet's grounding wire also grounds the box, so touching the box doesn't give you a shock. The connection is made with a wire screwed to the box, then connected to the green wire grounding the switch or outlet.
Answer why does the person who made a circuit a probably connect the wires to a penny
it also carries curent from the outlet
nothing at all. only if its a moisturized peice of cheese, then maybe it will melt, but hayy that might be pretty cool
The outlet would be the more often recommended place for it.An electrical timer can be placed anywhere within the circuit. Usually the timer would be placed at the front end of the circuit.
most likely a bad wire or a lose connection on the back of the outlet!
An electrical outlet may suddenly stop working due to a tripped circuit breaker, a blown fuse, a loose connection, or a faulty outlet. It is important to troubleshoot the issue carefully and safely to determine the cause and address it properly.
No, it is not safe to insert a 160V rated plug into a 110V outlet. The voltage difference could cause damage to the appliance or electrical system, and may pose a fire hazard. It is important to always match the voltage requirements of the device with the voltage supplied by the outlet.

nonmetals are the best insulators
Standard 120 volt 15 amp outlet. 300 watts is not a high current demand.
No, an outlet is only a distribution point. A source of electrical energy would be the generation station, wind generator, photovoltaic cells (solar energy panels) or other devices that actually produce electrical energy by changing energy from one type (chemical, solar...) to another.
If a 12 volt appliance is connected to a 120 volt outlet, it would likely get damaged due to the excessive voltage. The appliance is designed to run on 12 volts, so the higher voltage could overwhelm and fry its electrical components. It's important to always match the voltage requirements of an appliance with the electrical supply to prevent damage.
Back up generators
because the circuit has to many outlets on it
