Is the neutral conductor of a two wire single phase circuit considered a current carrying conductor?
Sure. In a two-wire circuit, both wires carry equal currents.
Is plastic wrapped around the electric wires is a good conductor?
Plastic wrapped around the wire is insulator. Not a conductor. That is why it is wrapped around the conductor wire.
Does capacitance exists between two current carrying conductors?
Capacitance exists between any two conductors, current carrying or not.
What is the difference between capacitance and stray capacitance?
Capacitance is an ability to store an electric charge. "If we consider two same conductors as capacitor,the capacitance will be small even the conductors are close together for long time." this effect is called Stray Capacitance.
What are the test for 132 kv cable?
1. phase identification test. 2. Insulation Resistance Test. 3. Conductor capacitance. 4.Conductor Resistance. 4. Outer Sheath Test.
What will the affect of capacitance of a capacitor when a conductor is placed between a capacitor?
capacitance will tend to zero
What does not limit current flow in a circuit - capacitance - high conductor resistance or longer conductor?
Of the three choices, capacitance does not limit current flow in an AC circuit.
Why is the concept of self GMD is not applicable for capacitance?
The radius in the eqn. of capacitance is actual outside radius of the conductor whereas for inductance eqn. The radius is the self GMD of the conductor.
What would happen if the length of wire increase what happens to the capacitance?
capacitance also increase
Is the neutral conductor of a two wire single phase circuit considered a current carrying conductor?
Sure. In a two-wire circuit, both wires carry equal currents.
Is wire an insulator or conductor?
Wire can be either an insulator or a conductor, depending on its material and properties. Copper wire, for example, is a good conductor of electricity, while rubber-coated wire is used as an insulator to protect against electric shocks.
What is the capacitance of a twin copper wire?
The capacitance of a twin copper wire would depend on various factors such as the distance between the wires, the diameter of the wires, and the dielectric material between them. It can be calculated using the formula C = (ε0 * εr * A) / d, where C is the capacitance, ε0 is the permittivity of free space, εr is the relative permittivity of the material between the wires, A is the area of each wire, and d is the distance between the wires.
Is wire an example of a conductor?
It matters what kind of wire like a cell phone charger would not be a conductor but a wire made for braces would be a big conductor. Also anything metal is a positive conductor of electricity. :)
Difference between stray and parasitic capacitance?
Parasitic capacitance is unavoidable and usually unwanted capacity between two or more conductors which exists due to close proximity and which typically causes non-ideal circuit behavior. Stray capacitance, as it is typically thought of, is a type of parasitic capacitance. It is the capacity from a conductor to its surroundings which is the aggregate of the conductors in its environment inversely weighted by the distance to each of the environmental conductors.
Why do concentric cables hold a capacitive charge?
any two conductive surfaces will have capacitance between them, when one conductor surounds the other, the effect become large enough to be significant
Is plastic wrapped around the electric wires is a good conductor?
Plastic wrapped around the wire is insulator. Not a conductor. That is why it is wrapped around the conductor wire.
Is a copper wire a nonmetal conductor?
Yes. It is a nonmetal conductor.
