QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
◉ electrical safety rule. Answer: Never touch electrical wiring or
equipment with wet hands or while standing on a wet surface.
◉ electrical safety rule. Answer: Do not operate electrical equipment
that is damaged, frayed, or otherwise in poor condition.
◉ electrical safety rule. Answer: Use the correct fuse or circuit
breaker for the circuit you are working on.
◉ electrical safety rule. Answer: Never remove or bypass the
grounding prong on a plug.
◉ Electrical Safety. Answer: Do not use extension cords or multiple
outlet adapters that are not rated for the equipment you are using.
◉ electrical safety. Answer: Do not overload circuits by plugging in
too many devices or using high-powered equipment.
,◉ electrical safety. Answer: Do not use electrical equipment in wet
or damp conditions unless it is specifically designed for that
purpose.
◉ electrical safety. Answer: Use properly rated and properly
installed surge protectors for sensitive electronic equipment.
◉ electrical safety. Answer: Always follow the manufacturer's
instructions for using electrical equipment.
◉ purpose of lockout tag out. Answer: to prevent unexpected
energization or startup of machinery or equipment while it is being
serviced or repaired.
◉ state the two types of electrical current. Answer: AC and DC
◉ how to use a circuit tester. Answer: To test a circuit, first locate the
circuit breaker or fuse that controls the circuit you want to test.
Then, using the circuit tester, touch the red probe to the live wire
and the black probe to the neutral or ground wire.
◉ what is a power source. Answer: The power source is the source
of electrical energy for the circuit. It can be a battery, a generator, or
a power outlet. The power source provides the electrical current
that flows through the circuit.
, ◉ what is a conductor. Answer: The conductor is a material that
allows electricity to flow through it, such as a wire. The conductor
carries the electrical current from the power source to the load.
◉ what is a load. Answer: The load is the device or appliance that is
being powered by the circuit. It can be a light bulb, a motor, or any
other device that uses electricity. The load converts the electrical
energy from the circuit into some other form of energy, such as light
or motion.
◉ what is a switch. Answer: The switch is a device that is used to
control the flow of electrical current in the circuit. It can be used to
turn the circuit on or off, allowing the load to be powered or de-
powered as needed.
◉ two types of power supplies and schematic symbol. Answer: AC
and DC
