CFESA Electric - Accurate Answers To All Questions
Voltage Right Ans - Potential difference or driving force of electrons
between two lines
Current Right Ans - Measured in amps. Movement of electrons through a
circuit when a difference of potential exists.
Direct current (DC) Right Ans - Circuit electrons flow in only one direction
from negative to positive.
Frequency Right Ans - (Hertz) number of times the alternating current
changes from 0 to its peak positive then zero to peak negative then back to
zero.
Power Right Ans - Amount of energy used. Determined by voltage, current,
and resistance in a circuit.
Resistance Right Ans - Impedance or opposition to the flow of current.
Measured in Ohms. Every circuit must have resistance.
Circuit Right Ans - a path for an electrical current to flow around
Series circuit Right Ans - An electric circuit with a single path. (Castle wall)
Parallel circuit Right Ans - A circuit that contains more than one path for
current flow. (Parachute)
Series-Parallel Circuit Right Ans - Combination of series and parallel
circuits.
Continuity Right Ans - Continuous or or unbroken path for current to flow.
short circuit Right Ans - Accidental connection of lower resistance within a
circuit.
Dead Short Right Ans - Hot touches ground or two hot lines touch.
