• When an outlet is old, it can emit electrical shock – Outdated outlets usually possess two-prong instead of the now common three. Two-prong outlets possess no ground wire. The ground wire acts as an additional safety barrier in the case of an unstable electrical current. This wire gives unstable currents a passage to the […]
A transformer is a stationary or static electrical machine that transforms electrical power from one circuit to another and still maintains a static frequency, this is called mutual induction because transformers don’t have moving parts like other mechanical devices. Types of Transformers There are different types of transformers based on their use and how they […]
A circuit breaker is an important safety device that works by cutting off the flow of electricity through a circuit whenever it gets too high.
