Ohms
The resistance
AC
Flow of electric current periodically reverses direction
DC
current that does not change polarity
Motor
converts energy into mechanical energy
Line
Where you connect the incoming power source
Electricity
Energy resulting from charged particles
Load
Where the power leaves the device and travels down the circuit
Series
Electrical circuit that only has one path for current to flow
parallel
has branches that divide the current so parts pass through each branch
Volts
base unit used to measure voltage
Capacitor
a device used to store an electrical charge
Resisters
designed resistance to the passage of electrical current
Insulators
Prevents electrical current from flowing where it's not wanted
Watts
units of electrical power
Transformer
an apparatus for reducing or increasing the voltage of an alternating current
Amps
Unit of electrical current
Current
Electrical charge in motion
circuit
complete and closed path where a circulating electric current can flow
Safeties
Any type of precaution taken to protect against electrical currents
Multimeter
an instrument designed to measure electric current, voltage, and resistance
Coulomb
the amount of electrons conveyed in one second by current of one amp
Jueles
Measurement of electrical energy
Ohms Law
states that the current through a conductor between two points is directly proportional to the voltage across the two points
