A fuse is a:

• device used to overload a circuit
• device used to protect circuits from an overload of current
• plastic tool used in an ohmmeter
• tool used in place of pliers.

A current-carrying conductor not under electrical pressure is a/an:

• circuit breaker
• hot wire
• insulator
• neutral wire.

If someone is undergoing electrical shock, it is dangerous to touch that person because both people will become:

• disconnected from current.
• heroes.
• insulators
• part of the circuit

Touching electrical switches or receptacles with wet hands may cause electrical shock because:

• hands are free of oil
• switches are clean
• water conducts electricity
• water is universal solvent.

• Fuse
• Hot wire
• Insulator
• Neutral wire

A Western Union splice is used:

• in the western part of the U.S.
• where four or more wires are joined.
• where strength is required in a splice
• with wire nuts.
