What voltage would you expect to measure on a red wire from a power supply?

The voltage on a red wire from a power supply typically depends on the specific power supply being used. Common voltages for red wires in power supplies include +5V, +12V, and +24V, among others. It is important to check the specifications of the power supply to determine the exact voltage.


How can you tell when the Gioteck headset EX-02 for the PS3 is charged or when it is charging?

How do you install a doorbell with four wires both having black and red wires?

It depends on what the wires are connected to and where the power supply is located. If the switch is lighted power has to get to the switch for the light. With a lighted switch you have a hot supply side, a neutral and then the wire going to the bell. So if Black 1 and Red 1 are supply voltage you would connect Red 1 to the hot side of switch, Black 1 would go to common as would Black 2. Red 2 would go to Bell side of the switch.


How can the light on my GFCI outlet be on when there is no power coming to the outlet?

The pilot light in a GFCI is an indication that the receptacle is hot, maybe they should add a red pilot light to indicate that no power is coming out of the outlet and green when power is available.


There are typically 6 colors of wires on power supplies What is the voltage of each wire?

The wire colors on power supplies are typically black (ground), red (+5V), yellow (+12V), orange (+3.3V), blue (-12V), and white (-5V). Each wire corresponds to a specific voltage output supplied by the power supply unit to power different components in a computer system.

How many volts does an LED need to light?

That depends on the current. The formula P=IV (where P is power in watts, I is current in amps and V is voltage in volts) is how you calculate the power. So if the current is 2 and the voltage is 3 then P=2x3=6Watts. Use an ammeter to determine the current.

WHAT CHEMICAL COMBINATION MAKES A RED LED?

A red LED typically uses a combination of elements like aluminum gallium arsenide or gallium arsenide phosphide to produce its red light emission. These materials are used to create the semiconductor layers that emit light when an electrical current is applied.
