Alternating - -____ current is current that reverses its direction of flow at regular
intervals.
Voltage - -____ is the amount of electrical pressure that causes electrons to move in a
circuit.
Amperes - -Current is measured in ____.
OCPD - -A(n) ____ is a device that automatically opens a circuit to prevent damage
from a high-current condition.
Contact - -A(n) ____ is the conducting part of a switch that operates with another
conducting part to complete (close) or break (open) a circuit.
Relay - -A(n) ____ is an electrical switch that is actuated by a separate circuit.
Open - -A(n) ____ circuit is a circuit having an incomplete path, which prevents current
flow.
Resistance - -____ is the opposition to the flow of electrons.
Conductor - -A(n) ____ is a material that has little resistance and permits electrons to
