Electrical Power & Safety

Electricity How do we get power?

How is household wiring arranged? Most household wiring is logically designed with a combination of parallel circuits. Electrical energy enters the home usually at a breaker box or fuse box and distributes the electricity through multiple circuits. A breaker box or fuse box is a safety feature which will open

Question Why do birds not get electrocuted on the wires? Birds can perch on a power line because there is no difference in energy on the one power line. However, if the bird touches another power line or anything else that is less or more energized (i.e. the ground, another power line), it could be electrocuted.

How is Electrical Power calculated? Electrical Power is the product of the current (I) and the voltage (v) The unit for electrical power is the same as that for mechanical power in the previous module – the watt (W) Example Problem: How much power is used in a circuit which is 110 volts and has a current of 1.36 amps? P = I V Power = (1.36 amps) (110 V) = 150 W

How is electrical energy determined? Electrical energy is a measure of the amount of power used and the time of use. Electrical energy is the product of the power and the time. Example problem: E = P X time P = I V P = (2A) (120 V) = 240 W E = (240 W) (4 h) = 960Wh = 0.96 kWh

If electric lights are an accurate gauge of electricity usage, what areas use the most electricity? How common is the use of electric power? Look at the image below of Earth at night. You can pick out areas like Europe and the east and west coasts of the United States because of all the electric lights. What areas use the least electricity?
