What does AC stand for in electrical terms?

Back

Alternating Current

Front

Define Ohm's Law and provide the formula.

Back

I = V/R

Front

Explain the difference between series and parallel circuits.

Back

In series circuits, components are connected in a single path, while in parallel circuits, components are connected in multiple paths.

Front

What is the purpose of a ground wire in an electrical system?

Back

To provide a path for excess electrical current to flow into the ground

Front

What is the role of a transformer in electrical circuits?

Back

To transfer electrical energy between circuits through electromagnetic induction and adjust voltage levels.

Front

What is the difference between a resistor and a capacitor?

Back

A resistor limits current flow, a capacitor stores and releases energy.

Front

Explain the concept of electrical power and how it is calculated.

Back

Electrical power is calculated by multiplying the voltage (V) across the circuit by the current (I) flowing through it using the formula P = V * I.

Front

What safety precautions should be followed when working with electricity?

Back

Follow safety precautions such as wearing PPE, grounding equipment, avoiding water, using insulated tools, and turning off power.

Front

Discuss the importance of electrical codes and regulations in the industry.

Back

Electrical codes and regulations are important for safety, standardization, and legal compliance in the industry.

Front

What is the primary function of a fuse in an electrical circuit?

Back

To interrupt the circuit in case of excessive current
