a)What is the difference between A.C. and D.C. current? b)Where would you find A.C. current? c)Where would you find D.C. current? d)What is the frequency of mains electricity? e)What is the voltage of mains electricity? Watch the demo from your teacher and then answer these questions

10/10/2015 Wiring a plug Earth wire Neutral wire Insulation Live wire Fuse Cable grip The live wire of a plug alternates between positive and negative potential relative to the Earth The neutral wire of a plug stays at a potential close to zero relative to the Earth

10/10/2015 What is wrong with the wiring of these plugs?

10/10/2015 Earth wires Earth wires are always used if an appliance has a _____ case. If there is a _____ in the appliance, causing the live wire to ______ the case, the current “_______” down the earth wire and the ______ blows. Words – fuse, fault, metal, surges, touch Metal Fault Touchsurges Fuse The earth wire allows the electricity a quick path to the ground

What have you learnt? Do you know what the frequency of mains electricity is? Do you know what the voltage of mains electricity is? Could you label a plug? Can you recognise when a plug is incorrectly wired?
