|
| 1. | A conductor is anything that
impedes electrical flow?
|
|
| 2. | If the wire is marked as the
hot or live wire it means that the circuit is carrying current or is energized?
|
|
| 3. | The neutral wire is the return
wire to the power source?
|
|
| 4. | The electrical flow trough the
neutral wire should always be continuous and can occasionally be broken by a switch or
fuse?
|
|
| 5. | Breakers and fuses are safety
devices that “break” the flow of electricity whenever the rated value of a circuit is
exceeded?
|
|
| 6. | Breakers and fuses are both
reusable after they have been “tripped”?
