What is the allowable voltage drop in the circuit?
The Voltage Drop allowed in a circuit is the reduction in voltage due to the presence of resistance when a current passes through a wire or circuit element. The size of the voltage drop depends on the specific application and design criteria of the circuit. Different applications and national standards have different regulations on the allowable voltage drop. Below are some common voltage drop requirements:Home and commercial buildingsIn the electrical wiring of homes and commercial buildings, i

Why does electricity only pass through one person when touched by another person near an electrical cable?
The reason why electricity passes through the human body involves the principles of electricity in physics. When the human body becomes part of the circuit, the current will pass through the human body, and the reason why the human body can become part of the circuit is because the human body has a certain conductivity. The following explains why current only passes through another person when that person touches near the cable:The conditions under which the current flowsCurrent always tends to

What are the validations of Ohm’s law?
Ohm's Law is a fundamental principle in electrical engineering and physics that describes the relationship between the current flowing through a conductor, the voltage across the conductor, and the resistance of the conductor. The law is expressed mathematically as:V=I×R V is the voltage across the conductor (measured in volts, V), I is the current flowing through the conductor (measured in amperes, A), R is the resistance of the conductor (measured in ohms, Ω).While Ohm's Law is widely accepted

What is the relationship between capacitance and current, voltage, resistance, and impedance? Why does this relationship exist?
Capacitance, current, voltage and resistance are the basic electrical parameters in a circuit, and the relationship between them can be understood by Ohm's law and the characteristics of capacitors. Here are the main relationships between them:The relationship between voltage and current Ohm's law: In a pure resistance circuit, the relationship between voltage (V) and current (I) follows Ohm's law, that is, I = V/R, where R is resistance (Ω), indicating that current is proportional to voltage an

What is the reason for the infinite voltage and zero current in an open circuit?
From the nature of voltage understanding open circuit voltage infinity (ideal)Voltage definitionVoltage is the work done by an electric field force to move a unit of positive charge from one point to another, i.eU=W/qThere's voltage, there's work, there's charge. In the open state, there is no current path, we can consider from the point of view of the electric field.Electric field conditions at open circuitWhen the circuit is open, it is assumed that there is an electric field between the two p

What is the process for connecting an AC capacitor?
The specific process of connecting AC capacitors can be changed according to different application scenarios, for example, in AC filter circuits, the connection process is as follows: Basic structure: The AC filter capacitor wiring diagram consists of a capacitor and other circuit elements. The two ends of the capacitor are connected to the positive and negative ends of the AC power supply, while the other circuit elements are connected to the two ends of the capacitor. Working principle: When t

What is meant by the voltage of a system, and how does voltage flow through a current?
Meaning of system voltageDefinitionSystem voltage is the potential difference between specific points in an electrical system (such as a power supply system, an electronic circuit system, etc.). In power systems, it usually refers to the voltage between a certain phase or line in the grid. For example, in a three-phase four-wire low-voltage distribution system, the phase voltage (the voltage between the live line and the neutral line) is 220V, and the line voltage (the voltage between the live l

What is the reason for refrigerators not having a fuse or circuit breaker?
In fact, most refrigerators have overload protection devices, which may be fuses, circuit breakers or circuit protection elements with similar functions, but some refrigerators do not appear to have independent visible fuses or circuit breakers, mainly for the following reasons:Built-in protection elementIntegration with compressorThe main power-consuming part of the refrigerator is the compressor, and many refrigerators integrate protection elements into the compressor's starting and running ci

Is there a correlation between voltage and power output in PV cells? If so, how does increasing voltage affect power output?
Yes, there is a correlation between voltage and power output in photovoltaic (PV) cells. The relationship between voltage, current, and power output can be understood through the basic electrical formula:P=V⋅Iwhere: P is the power, V is the voltage, I is the current.In the context of PV cells, both voltage (V) and current (I) contribute to the power output (P).However, the relationship isn't linear due to the nature of how solar cells operate and their characteristic curves.How Increasing Voltag

What is the relationship between electromagnetic force and electricity and magnetism?
The Electromagnetic Force (EMF) is one of the four fundamental forces in physics that unify the Electric Interaction between charges and the Magnetic Interaction between magnetic charges. The electromagnetic force is essentially the result of the interaction between the Electric Field and the Magnetic Field. The following is a detailed explanation of the electromagnetic force and its relationship to electricity and magnetism:The interaction between electric charges Electric field: When an electr
