Why do you need more force to pull a plug in a full bath tab?
Quite simply the weight of water directly above the plug in a bath is considerably more than the weight of water above the plug in say a hand basin. In addition, the surface area of the bath plug is greater than that of a conventional hand basin plug. Therefore, the column of water being moved by the removal of the bath plug would have a larger volume than that of the hand basin plug. Consequently, weighing more and therefore requiring a larger force to move the plug in an upward direction. If you find pulling the plug on a chain difficult, then you can always upgrade your bath plug chain combination for a rotary cable 'pop-up' bath waste mechanism. This should aid your comfort in attending to the bath water evacuation process.
What are different electrical materials and supplies?
Electrical wiring needs to be made of two main materials: a good conductor of electricity, usually copper, and - to prevent the wires inside a cable from connecting to one another - a very good insulator, usually pvc (poly-vinyl-chloride) or special rubber.Cables used for special scientific or military uses may use silver or gold for their wires even though they are very expensive compared to copper.Aluminum is a cheaper alternative to copper, silver or gold. Aluminum is a much lighter and cheaper material to use as a conductor but you must give up some amperage versus a cable that is the same size, but made from copper, because aluminum is not such a good conductor.copper is used for conductors, plastics are used for insulation, steel is used for conduit
Why is a plug made of conductors and insulators?
Because you need conductors to take electricity to where it is needed. You need insulators to stop it going where it shouldn't.
What is the third prong in plug for?
On a British plug it is the earth pin connected to the earth wire. This is safety feature to stop electric shock
Is covering of plug an insulatoror or a conductor?
conductor
Why is the cable grip important?
A cable grip prevents tugging on the cable causing the wires to be pulled out from the plug.
What is the job of the cable grip?
i think the cable grip holds everything inside the plug as you can tell from the name.
Why is the cord grip so important?
A cord grip stops unnecessary movement of an electrical cable. In a plug - it stops strain being put on the terminals, in an appliance - it stops the cable rubbing against the case.
The common mistakes of wiring a 3 pin plug?
-wire can be taken straight to the pin and not positioned in plastic 'valley' (usually mistake made in earth wire) -wire cut when outer cable is removed -cable grip clamped onto three wires instead of cable -loose copper wires visible.
What material could be put around the wires to insulate an electric cable and a plug?
plastic or rubber
What type of material is inside the holes in the outlet?
Inside the "holes" are springy brass fingers that grip the plug prongs when you insert the wall plug, making connection with your home's electrical system.
What does the cable grip do in a plug?
A cable grip is a device for propelling a vehicle by attaching to a wire cable (also called wire rope) running at a (relatively) constant speed. The vehicle may be suspended from the cable, as in the case of aerial lifts such as a gondola lift may be guided by rails, as in a cable traction railway, or may be self-guiding, as in a button lift. Typically, multiple vehicles will use the same cable; where just one or two vehicles are in use they will tend to be attached to the cable permanently.

Why is a cable on a plug made from copper?
Copper is a very conductive metal and also ductile.
What is a female plug?
A female plug is a plug where there is a hole. To connect to a male cable, insert the male cable into the female one.
Can you plug a Xbox 360 Ethernet cable into a laptop?
yes you can plug a ethernet cable into a laptop!
Can you plug into a cable set box micro usb coiled cable plus micro HDMI to HDMI cable?
You can plug into a cable set box a micro usb coiled cable plus a micro HDMI to an HDMI cable. In order to plug these components together successfully, you will need the proper adapters for conversion.
