Unit 1
REVIEW QUESTIONS
1. What is electricity? Electricity is the flow of electrons between atoms.
2. What is current flow or amperage? Flow of electrons.
DR
3. What creates a magnetic field in a conductor? Voltage or current flow? Current flow.
4. What is voltage? Electrical pressure that pushes current flow.
EA
5. What is the difference between a conductor and an insulator? A conductor allows current
flow and an insulator restricts current flow.
M
6. What are the two common types of electricity? Direct current (DC) and alternating current
SH
(AC).
7. What is control voltage? Control voltage is the electrical section of the HVACR system
UB
that manages the on and off cycles.
8. What is resistance? Resistance is the force that slows down the flow of electrons in a
/S
circuit.
TU
9. What is a watt? Watt is the rate of doing work or power.
10. How are watts calculated? Watts or power is calculated by multiplying amps by voltage.
VI
11. What is a meant by a load? Any component that has a resistance to electron or current flow.
12. What is the difference between a complete circuit, open circuit and a short circuit?
A?
A complete circuit is a path for electricity to flow. An open circuit means that there is break or
“opening” in the wire or load stopping the flow of electrons. A short circuit has the power
? ?
going to ground or a condition in which the load has very low resistance.
13. What is a series circuit? A series circuit is a circuit that has only one path for current flow.
