the hot and neutral are wired forwards the ground and neutral are wired backwards
Yes in AC circuits the terminology reversed polarity means the hot and neutral are reversed to what they should be. In DC circuits reversed polarity means that the positive and negative terminals are reversed to what they should be.
In a normal distribution system, one wire is always connected to earth. Reverse polarity occurs when the live and neutral conductors on a system become reversed or 'swapped over'. It's a very dangerous situation with serious safety implications.
A wollyfloggle is a word that, when reversed, forms a new word. Examples would be "evil" reversed to "live" or "pal" reversed to give "lap".
No, in a three phase balance load, there should not be any current through Neutral conductor. If it is a 2 wire, single phase system, the Neutral will carry the same current as live conductor if the system has no Earth fault, leak.
On polarized receptacles the short slot is the hot side and the taller slot is neutral side. Colors can be swapped around sometimes. If they all are reversed, it is because the line is reversed somewhere, and all of the following outlets "downstream" from that one are reversed. Could even be in the main panel, if everything on the circuit is reversed.
The ignition is live or hot and has power available. The term neutral does not really apply.
In your house!
no. it is a chemical reaction. and so it cannot be reversed.
The plus symbol indicates the Live.
The colour red designates that the wire is used as a live wire. The neutral wire is identified as white in colour.
