How can short circuit damage devices?
It depends if the short are before or after the device. The short circuit will cause high amperage trough the device and then blown. (JP)
How does short circuit occur?
short circuit occurs when two wire which consist of one live and neutral wire are in contact with the main and the other end of the wire are touched each other short circuit occurs
What is a Winding-To-Ground Short Circuit?
No
Is it possible to do short circuit test of breakers at project site?
Yes, it possible to do a short circuit test of breakers at a project site.
If there is short circuit in our house what will you do?
check your house circuit box or check the fuse
What are facts about wasting energy?
Driving short distances when you could walk is a really common energy waster!!!!!!!
What is the difference between rated short circuit duration 3 seconds and 1 second circuit breaker?
The energy dissipated.
When you will get to know that short circuit will happen?
1. That if a short circuit occurs we will get a sign before short circuit will happen or not ? 2. what we can do ? 3. how fuse can get a short circuit ? 4. which wires we have to use from preventing short circuit ?
A long term affect for wasting energy?
if your wasting energy then that energy cant be used again until it has been reproduced, and that takes a very long time
How will an electrical circuit behave if there is an open circuit?
The circuit is incomplete, you will have no continuity, no flow of current to the load or other components. The voltage across every component in the circuit is zero. No part of the circuit stores or dissipates any energy. In short, the circuit doesn't work.
Why do you need to conserve electricity?
Using too much energy and wasting energy harms the environment and can use up vital natural resources that are in short supply. By conserving electricity, people are saving energy and helping the environment.
What are the benefits and dangers of electrical energy?
SHORT CIRCUIT AND OVERLOADElectricity energy is supplied into homes by pairs of insulated copper wires placed on walls and ceilings.Not much heat is produced in the wires because copper has low resistivity.However,if the current is very large,the wires may become hot enough to melt or burn the insulation and start a fire.This large current may be caused either by a short circuit or by overloading the circuit. 2. CIRCUIT PROTECTORThe panel board in your home where electrical energy is distributed through different circuits contains fuses or has a circuit breaker system.Each circuit branching out from the panel is connected in series to a fuse or circuit breaker.Fuse and circuit breaker are safety devices that brake the circuit whenever overload or short occurs by breaking the circuit of fire are prevented.
Why a coiled wire does not short the circuit?
I suspect that it is because a coiled wire becomes an electro-magnet which disipates and uses energy, and is therefore not recognized as a short.
Is a megohm a short circuit?
No. A short circuit would be zero ohms.
Every short circuit is always a closed circuit while every closed circuit is not a short circuit?
Long winded but true.
What is a circuit with no load?
An open circuit or a short-circuit (if that circuit is complete).
How can we use water in terms of energy?
we can use water as terms of energy by not wasting it.
