Electricty Flashcards
What do contactors have?
Coil
Contacts and mechanical linkage
Contactors are used on
Residential Ac and heat pumps
Solenoid flow control flow
Gas, water and refrigerant
What is potential difference
Measures in volts
Voltmeters measure
Potential difference between two specific points
In A/C
120V (Hot Black)
240V (Black and red or blue)
Ground is always bare wire or green
Quantity and intensity
of electrons moving through a conductor
Is amperage
Coils increase what?
Accuracy of ammeter
Reactance is what?
Resistance when current is flowing
In inductive reactance, the magnetic Fidel’s forms with current flow
And so field from one coil affects the next
Draw Capacitive Reactance Symbol
Current Always leads voltage by
90
Impedance is what?
Sum of all types of resistance
746 watts
1 HP
Three phase circuits
Each loop 120 degrees apart
Polarity changes 7200
