What to do with the white wire in track light with black green and white wires if the house does not have a white one?
The white is neutral. The house does have a neutral wire even though it may be black. One of those black wires is the neutral and the other is the hot wire. You will have to determine which is hot and which is neutral. You can easily do this with a voltage tester. The wire that lights the tester is the hot. When you wire the light simply wire the hot to hot, and the white and green to the other wire.
Does the electricity that goes into your house go back out again?
Yes it does, via the neutral wire.
What position would you find live electrical wire?
You would find a live electric wire, with a neutral and usually also an earth wire, in any place where electricity is used. The wires are colour coded differently in different areas but in Europe live is brown, neutral is blue and earth is green/yellow.
Which wire on an ac cable Is the neutral the one with or without writing?
On a lamp cord or two wire extension cord the writing is on the neutral side. Double check this by tracing the wire down to the cord end. You should find the neutral wire connected to the wider blade, of the two blades, of the plug cap
What color is neutral wire in Australia?
The colour of the neutral wire in Australia is blue with marking N.
What is a floating neutral wire?
a loose connection of a neutral wire
Can loose neutral wire effect the operation of Earth Leakage Circuit Breaker?
Yes, a loose neutral wire can effect the operation of Earth Leakage Circuit Breaker.
How can I determine how to find an open neutral in an electrical circuit?
To find an open neutral in an electrical circuit, you can use a multimeter to test for continuity between the neutral wire and the ground wire. If there is no continuity, it indicates an open neutral. Additionally, you can visually inspect the wiring for any signs of damage or loose connections.
Can a burnt out wire cause you to lose a neutral connection?
Not usually. When a wire burns and grounds out the breaker will trip. Wire burns are usually centered around terminal connections points. If a connection becomes loose heat will be produced and this heating action is what burn the insulation on the wire. The neutral wire on the other hand is not switched so it is less likely to have terminal connection points that can become loose. In a circuit the neutral wire is connected under a wire nut with other neutral extensions in the circuit and then connected to the neutral buss in the distribution panel. There is very little to go wrong on the neutral return side of the load wire.
What do I attach the house white neutral wire to if my Maytag electric cooktop has no neutral wire?
Just cap the white wire off and fold it up in the back of the box, out of the way.

How do you fix open neutral?
An open neutral means the neutral wire is disconnected or broken. You will have to remove the outlet and find out which is the case. The wire may also be broken.
How can the loose wire of a starter on a 97 Nissan Maxima be fixed?
If the wire is loose at a connection, find a wrench that will fit it and tighten it.
How do you find neutral line among distribution lines?
US NEC: The neutral line is the white wire. Coming from the pole, it is the ground wire.
How can I determine how to find a neutral wire in an electrical circuit?
To find a neutral wire in an electrical circuit, you can use a voltage tester or a multimeter. Turn off the power to the circuit, then test each wire to see which one has a voltage close to zero. This wire is likely the neutral wire. Be sure to follow safety precautions when working with electricity.
How to find the neutral wire in an electrical circuit?
To find the neutral wire in an electrical circuit, you can use a voltage tester or a multimeter. Turn off the power to the circuit, then test each wire to see which one has a voltage reading close to zero. This wire is the neutral wire. Remember to always follow safety precautions when working with electricity.
Does the electricity that goes into your house go back out again?
Yes it does, via the neutral wire.
