Why should we ever pay more on electrical bills than what is necessary? Everyone likes to save some money. That is why people are adopting new ways to save money on energy bills in the wake of ever-increasing energy charges. Luckily, you can control your electricity expenditure by making a few adjustments in your electrical … Read more
In this article, we are giving a list of different types of Plug & Socket that are Used in Different Countries. There are currently 15 types of electrical outlet plugs. Each plug and socket combination is assigned a letter by the US Department of Commerce International Trade Administration (ITA), starting with A and moving through … Read more
In 1834, a French scientist Peltier discovered that if the junctions are at the same temperature and a current is passed through the circuit of the Thermocouple, heat is produced at one Junction and absorbed at the other i.e. one junction (former) is heated and the other junction (later) is cooled. This is known as Peltier … Read more
The absorption or evolution of heat energy, if a current is allowed to flow in a conductor having its different parts of different temperatures is known as Thomson effect. or When a current flows through an unequally heated conductor, there is an absorption or evolution of heat in the body of the conductor. This is … Read more
The property of a material that opposes the flow of current through it, is called electrical resistance or simply resistance. The symbol of resistance is shown in the fig. 1. Practically, the electrical components that offers certain opposition (resistance) to the flow of current in the circuit is known as resistor. Fig. 1(b) shows some … Read more
If someone chokes a person, they can’t breathe, the flow of air is stopped. The name Choke comes from the same idea. There is some energy that we want to Choke or prevent flowing in our circuit in or out of our circuit. We might want to prevent the power or ground lines in a … Read more
Ground or earth in a main (AC power) electrical wiring system is a conductor that exists primarily to help protect against faults and which in normal operation does not carry current. Neutral is a circuit conductor that may carry current in normal operation, and which is usually connected to earth. In-house wiring, it is the … Read more
Why don’t we use copper wire as a fuse wire Fuse is a Safety device which protects an electrical device from fault. Whenever there is a fault, a short circuit current will flow that leads to the generation of high heat. This heat will damage the electrical appliance if the circuit does not open in … Read more
Permittivity of a Material The permittivity is the property of the material which shows the development of an electric field in the presence of an external electric field. In other words, It is the ability of the material to develop the electric field in the presence of an external electric field. It is represented by the … Read more
