In some circumstances, you may need electricity but only have access to the phase wires of an AC main; if the neutral wire is not available, you need a neutral wire to use electricity for lighting a lightbulb or other electrical device. As you may already be aware, the earth can be used just like […]
Earth and neutral are two different electrical concepts that are often confused. There is a common misunderstanding between the electrical concepts of earth and neutral. While they are related in some ways, they have distinct characteristics and serve different purposes in an electrical system. They have unique qualities and fulfill various functions in an electrical
Superconductors are materials that can conduct direct current with zero resistance, when they are cooled below a specific temperature known as the critical temperature or Tc. In other words, when electric current is passed through a superconductor, it will flow without experiencing any resistance to flow of current, unlike normal conductors which will encounter resistance
Metals are well known for their ability to conduct electricity and heat, but have you ever stopped to think why they conduct electricity? In this article we will explore the science behind why metals are such a very good conductors of electricity and how conductivity works? In simple words, metals conduct electricity because they have
A semiconductor is a type of material that is commonly used in the construction of electronic components or devices. Semiconductors are characterized by their ability to conduct electricity under certain conditions; are crucial for the function of a wide range of technologies, including computers, smartphones, and solar panels etc. In this blog post, we will
You may have come across this question, why don’t birds get electrocuted or receive any sock while sitting on electric wires while sitting on high voltage power Well, this is one of the most asked questions in the field of electronics and electrical. So in this chapter, we are going to talk about why birds
