Why Hot and neutral are both hot?
You'll have to explain your problem better.If HOT black and Neutral White in your house wiring are both hot then Neutral is NOT bounded to ground in main panel and neutral could be floating. There should be no voltage between Neutral and Ground (Bare wire in panel). By code if there are multiple panels Ground is only bonded to Neutral in th emain entry panel. I have seen cases where this bonding was not done. At your main panel check voltage between neutral and ground. It should be zero.
What will happen if neutral and ground wire is shorted?
If the neutral and ground wires are shorted together, it can create a dangerous situation in the electrical system. This can lead to the mixing of currents and potential overloading of circuits, resulting in electrical fires, damage to appliances, or even electric shock hazards. It is important to ensure that neutral and ground wires are kept separate to maintain proper functioning of the electrical system.
How should old 3 wire stove be wired in panel bare wire to neutral or ground or both?
The bare wire from the old 3-wire stove should be connected to the grounding terminal in the panel. The neutral and ground should not be bonded together at the stove. If the stove requires a 4-wire connection, it's best to run a new 4-wire circuit to meet current electrical codes for safety.
What is the difference between the neutral and ground bar?
In any distribution panel there are individual bars for each termination. The ground buss is in direct contact with the metal enclosure. The neutral is isolated from the metal enclosure. The only place where the two come into contact with each other is where a bonding screw protrudes through the neutral bar and into the metal enclosure.
Does a sub panel need a ground conductor from main panel?
Answer for USA, Canada and countries running a 60 Hz supply service.Yes, you have to have a ground rods connected to the system. This is especially important in North American systems as a split phase is in use. The center-point winding by code must be grounded. This is a backup in case the neutral conductor becomes open. If this backup was not in place, due to the configuration of the distribution panel, 240 volts could be applied across two 120 volt loads which would be a series connection. If the resistance across both of these series loads is equal nothing will happen as the voltage drop would be even at 120 volts. If the series load resistances are not even then uneven voltage drops will appear. This could cause higher that allowed current to flow through devices that would damage them. Periodic maintenance of the ground rod connections should be done by every homeowner to make sure the connections are clean and tight.
Info from one computer to another computer?
if they both have the same operating system you can connect them through a wired or wireless connection through the control panel's network settings if they both have the same operating system you can connect them through a wired or wireless connection through the control panel's network settings if they both have the same operating system you can connect them through a wired or wireless connection through the control panel's network settings
How do you troubleshoot the passenger wiper not working on a 2000 Plymouth grand voyager se?
Remove the door panel and check for power and ground at the motor connector. If you have both power and ground the motor has failed.
What is a rock climbing cord used for?
Usually referred to as a rope.Your rope is tied to a harness that goes around your waist and thighs. It is then looped through some kind of protection on the wall, (a bolt or gear or anchor chains, depending on the type of climbing you're doing) and finally the other end is looped through the harness of your buddy who is your "belayer".His job is to act as a weight in case you fall. With this weight on both ends the rope both stops and cushions your fall. This way, you can climb up sheer rock faces and not worry so much about plummeting to your death or dismemberment.

What are the steps in connecting 120V to a 240V 60A air condition panel?
you should have three wires into the panel. two of them go to the double breakers or pull switch and the last is the ground lead. You can pick up 110 vac from one side of either breaker and that ground connection. DO NOT connect to the both breaker wires as that will be 220 vac
Do you have to Connect both fixture and house ground wires?
If you're asking whether you have to connect the fixture ground to the house ground, you do. The idea is to connect any exposed portion of a metal fixture to ground, keeping anything you would be able to touch from having a hazardous potential on it. The way to do this is to connect the fixture ground (which is connected to the metal chassis) to the building ground (which comes from your electrical panel).
What will happen if neutral and ground wire is shorted?

How do you draw a circle with a radius of 5 meters?
Drive a peg into the ground. Form a loop at both ends of a thin rope measuring 5 meters. Slip one looped end of the thin rope over the peg. Put a stick in the other loop and stretch the rope taut. Move the stick in a circle, keeping the rope taut, scoring a line on the ground with the end of the stick. Instead of a stick, a piece of chalk, or an aerosol can of paint could be used to mark the ground.
Can you explain how the neutral and ground wires are connected on the same bus bar in an electrical panel?
In an electrical panel, the neutral and ground wires are connected to the same bus bar to provide a path for electricity to flow back to the source and to ground any excess electricity for safety. The neutral wire carries current back to the source, while the ground wire is a safety measure to prevent electric shock. Connecting them to the same bus bar ensures that both wires have a direct path to return electricity safely.
How should old 3 wire stove be wired in panel bare wire to neutral or ground or both?

Which directions do Rayleigh waves cause the ground to move?
Rayleigh waves cause the ground to move in an elliptical rolling motion. This type of movement creates both vertical and horizontal ground displacement as the wave passes through the medium.
What type of fire alarm annunciation system identifies the zone in which the alarm was initiated both at the alarm control panel and through the audio notification device?
