What else can I help you with?
Does plastic protect you from electric current?
No, practically all plastic is an insulator. An insulator does not carry any electrical currents. A conductor can carry a current. "What plastics are conductive?", you may ask -- see link below.
What is the aluminum wire equivalent to?
In the electrical trade aluminum wire is equivalent to copper wire as it is also used to carry current. To carry the same current as copper wire aluminum wire is up sized to meet the same ampacity.
Will copper carry a electric current?
Yes, very easily. Copper is an excellent electrical conductor.
What is the wire size for 208 volt?
As with any electrical installation, the wire size used depends on the expected maximum current the wire will carry. That cannot be determined by voltage alone.
Flow of electricity through a wire is called?
It is called electrical current.
Does neutral carry current in an electrical circuit?
No, neutral does not carry current in an electrical circuit. It is used as a return path for current to flow back to the source.
Does the neutral wire carry current in an electrical circuit?
Yes, the neutral wire carries current in an electrical circuit, but it is designed to carry the current back to the power source to complete the circuit.
Does a neutral wire carry current in an electrical circuit?
Yes, a neutral wire carries current in an electrical circuit.
Do neutral wires carry current in an electrical circuit?
No, neutral wires do not carry current in an electrical circuit. They are used to complete the circuit and provide a return path for the current to flow back to the source.
Do copper carry current?
Yes, copper is a good electrical conductor.
What does not carry an electrical current?
Materials that do not conduct electricity are called insulators. Examples include rubber, plastic, glass, and wood, which have tightly bound electrons that do not move freely to carry an electric current.
What is the general name for the property of a material which enables it to carry an electrical current?
Conductor
What is noncunducting?
Something classed as non-conducting is a material that will not carry an electrical current.
Does current pass through a currency coin?
Yes, coins are made of metal and metal will carry an electrical current.
Why is it possible to run an electrical current through salt water and not pure water?
Pure water does not contain any electrolytes to carry electrons where as salt water contains the same to carry electrons -movement of electrons is electrical current
What is the purpose of the red wire in electrical wiring?
The purpose of the red wire in electrical wiring is to carry electrical current to specific components or devices in a circuit.
What does to allow energy of electricity to flow mean?
It means that you let an electrical current flow. The current will, of course, carry energy.
