Thermocouple consists of?
- 2 DIFFERENT METAL ALLOYS
It is a distance that electrical current travels in the cycle time.
Wavelength
It is a conducting liquid.
Electrolyte
It is a type of signal in which the current varies in the polarity and quantity in the circuit over a period of time.
AC
It is a constant flow of charge carriers in one direction.
DC
Electrons move in a few meters per second.
Velocity
It is generated by a separation of charges.

Electrons move in a few meters per second
Velocity
Lowest voltage that is hazardous to humans?
50 V AC ,120V DC
It is invisible and only its effect is perceptible.
Electricity
It is a junction between wire/s, power sources can reduce voltage available for the load as the current has to transfer from 1 device to another
CONTACT RESISTANCE
It has better mechanical resistance, has a longer life and is less sensitive to short circuits.
