Important Questions on Dometic Electrical Circuit
What are the advantages of connecting electrical devices in parallel with the battery instead of connecting them in series?
The total effective resistance of the circuit can be reduced by connecting electrical appliances in parallel.
There is no division of voltage among the appliances when connected in parallel.
What are the advantages of connecting cells in parallel?
Is live wire red or black?
Explain why a fuse is connected only to the live wire.
State the difference between old and new colour-coding of wires according to the international convention of colour coding.
State the commonly used electrical wiring colour codes in India.
What according to you is the need of colour coding wires?
Read the given passage and answer the following question:
The home electrical connection consists of 'live', 'neutral' and 'earth' wires. The 'live' and the 'neutral' wires have potential difference of . The 'earth' is connected to ground. Due to a fault in the equipment or if the plastic coating on the 'live' and the 'neutral' wires give a path for the two wires to come in contact with each other and a large current flows through it producing heat. If any inflammable material (such as wood, cloth, plastic, etc.) exists around that place it can catch fire. Therefore, a fuse wire is used as a precautionary measure.
Choose the two wires having potential difference of .
At the time of the short circuit, the current in the circuit_____________.
If the live wire and neutral wire come in contact either directly or via conducting wire, then it is called _____.
The most important safety device used for protecting electrical appliances from short-circuiting or overloading is ____________.
At the time of short circuit, the current in the circuit
The melting point of the wire used in the heater element is high while a _____wire has a low melting point.
Smart plugs collects information about _____ usage of appliances.
Smart light with motion detector can save the energy by controlling the LED lights.
Smart power strip prevents the household appliances from wasting power.
An electrical connection which is not complete with a broken path is known as _____ circuit.
What do you mean by earthing?
