Best Answer

It's actually a magnetic field, not an electric field, but the answer is 'Yes'. Pass some DC ... like from a battery that's operating a flashlight bulb ... through an insulated wire, and lay the wire over a compass. You'll plainly see that somethingthat affects the compass got through the insulation.

Radiant Barrier is essentially insulation that can be found anywhere where regular insulation is installed. Radiant barrier is foil and can often be seen covering duct work.


Is there aluminum wire encased in plastic?

Yes, there are aluminium conductors that use a PVC covering for insulation of the conductor.


Should attic insulation be covered with plywood to create storage space?

As long as you do NOT compress the insulation. If your wanting the area for storage your R-value (insulating value) will only be as good as the depth of the rafter you are covering.


Difference between a bare conductor and a insulated conductor?

A bare conductor is a conductor that does not have any type of insulation covering it. Insulated conductors (also known as coated) have a covering that protects them from outside sources.


Can an extension cord be used if it has a cut in it?

If the cuts depth is just the outer protective covering just tape it with electrical tape and you will be fine. If the cut penetrates the insulation of the underlying conductors on the green or white wire, tape the cut and then tape the outer layer of the protective covering. If the cut penetrates the black wire then it is best to get rid of the cord. If the cut is close to the end on a longer extension cord, cut the end off where the cut is and get a new end from a DIY store. Remember white wire on silver screw, black wire on brass screw and green wire on green screw. Do not use the cord with the cut uninsulated as this could lead to a dangerous situation especially if the cord is used in a damp or wet location.

Is there a spray on insulation made for bare copper wire?

Not that I know of. When insulation is applied to wire it is extruded so that the insulating material is uniform around the conductor. Without this uniformity the conductors insulation factor would vary and the wire would have to be rated at the lowest reading factor when tested with a high voltage. Even when splicing a wire, the electrical code states that the insulation covering the splice has to be brought up to or surpass the insulation factor that is supplied by the manufacturer of the wire.
