What else can I help you with?
Should neutral wire of lamp be connected to the 3amp or the 6 amp side of a canopy switch?
You should never switch the neutral wire. The neutral of the appliance should be connected directly to the neutral wire leading to the service panel neutral bar.
When connecting chain switch what is done with the neutral wire and white wire from ballast?
The neutral wire from the chain switch is connected to the white wire from the ballast. They should be connected together using a wire nut to ensure proper circuit completion and safe operation of the light fixture.
Why is it always connected in the phase or line wire to the switch and not the neutral wire?
because its much safer to switch the hot wire then the neutral wire because if you are working on a light fixture for example and the switch is off if you ground yourself out to the neutral you become the load or return. a neutral shock can me more dangerous at times
Can you connect the ground and neutral coming out of a cooktop to the ground of a nm8 2 wire?
Yes, you may connect the ground and neutral together as long as this is a replacement in an exsisting dwelling,for new construction you must have a four wire circuit with separate neutral and grounding conductor.It was never the intention of the code to make home owners replace exsisting three wire circuits with four wire when replacing equipment. .
How do you know what wire is ground on 200 amp service?
On a 200 amp or any size service the ground wire is easily identified. Look in the distribution panel for the neutral bus bar. This is where the service neutral (white wire) is connected to the distribution panel. There you will see a bare copper wire connected to the same neutral bar. This is the ground wire that is connected to the ground rods out side of the house.
Should neutral wire of lamp be connected to the 3amp or the 6 amp side of a canopy switch?
You should never switch the neutral wire. The neutral of the appliance should be connected directly to the neutral wire leading to the service panel neutral bar.
Which side of the White neutral wire do you connect the Black power wire?
The neutral wire and power wire are never connected together.
Why do white wire mark 120v?
Because the white wire on a 120 volt circuit is the neutral wire that is connected to the silver screw on outlets and switches. It is connected to the neutral bar in the service panel.
How would a ammeter be connected in a circuit?
An ammeter is always connected in series in the circuit.
How do you measure electrical current flow in a copper wire?
Electrical current flow in a copper wire is typically measured using an ammeter, which is connected in series with the wire. The ammeter measures the flow of electrons in the wire and displays the current in units of amperes (A). Make sure to set the ammeter to the appropriate range before taking the measurement.
When connecting chain switch what is done with the neutral wire and white wire from ballast?
The neutral wire from the chain switch is connected to the white wire from the ballast. They should be connected together using a wire nut to ensure proper circuit completion and safe operation of the light fixture.
When an ammeter is connected in a circuit which terminal of the battery must be connected to the positive terminal of the ammeter?
The positive terminal of the battery would be connected to the positive terminal of the ammeter. The load would then be connected between the two negative terminals, positive side of the load being connected to the negative side of the ammeter.
How should a ammeter and voltmeter be connected in circuit?
Ammeter is coneccted in series with circuit but Voltmeter is connected in parallel.
What color wire is connected to the silver screw in an incandescent fixture?
In most electrical devices the neutral wire is connected under the silver coloured screw.
How is an ammeter connected in a circuit?
Series connect it within the line of the circuit for which you are interested in measuring the current flow.More detailSince we measure the flow of current IN the circuit, the ammeter must be connected in series with the part of the circuit for which you are interested in measuring the current flow.One of the ammeter's terminals must be connected to a point of the incoming current flow and its second terminal must be connected to the point of on-going current flow. To do this, cut the relevant circuit wire and connect one terminal of the ammeter to each end of the cut.
Why should ammeter still be connected in a series despite the fact that the bulbs are already connected in parallel?
Because the ammeter connected in parallel will act as a short circuit.
Why is it always connected in the phase or line wire to the switch and not the neutral wire?
because its much safer to switch the hot wire then the neutral wire because if you are working on a light fixture for example and the switch is off if you ground yourself out to the neutral you become the load or return. a neutral shock can me more dangerous at times
