It is a form of energy.

What is electricity 

100

The physical pathway or route that allows electric current to flow. Consisting of various electrical components. 

What is a circuit

100
The control of electric current in a circuit, that can either allow or disrupt the the flow. 

What is a switch 

100
A way to generate electrical energy from a source that keeps coming back. 

What is a renewable power source 

100

One or two places where electricity flows into or out of a source or load Usually there is 1 positive and 1 negative. 

What is a Terminal 

200

The tiny particles inside the nucleus of an atom. 

What are protons, neutrons and electrons 

200

A complete pathway where electricity can flow. 

What is a closed circuit

200

There is a break or discontinuity in the pathway, preventing the flow of electricity.

What is an open circuit

200

A building that generates a huge amount of electricity.

What is a power plant

200

The components of a circuit are: 

What is a load 

What is a conductor 

What is a controlled device 

What is a power source 

300

These particles are negatively charged and gives electricity its name.

What are electrons 

300

Materials that allow electricity to flow through it easily. 

What is a conductor 

300

A device or component that consumes electrical energy and converts it into another form of energy.  

What is a load 

300

The law of conservation states that ________ cannot be neither created or destroyed but can only change forms.

What is energy 

300

Electrical energy can be transformed into other forms which are: 

What is kinetic energy 

What is sound energy 

What is light energy 

What is heat energy 

400

The buildup of electric charge on the surface of an object or material.

what is static electricity 

400

A place where two or more wires are twisted or joined together.

What is a junction

400

The components in this circuit are connected end-to-end forming a single path for electrical current to flow.

What is a series circuit 

400

We mainly get our electrical energy from these types of resources.  

what is a non-renewable power source

400

This PPE is an insulated piece of material to protect electricians from electrical shock by acting as a barrier between a specific part of the body and live electrical components. 

What is insulated gloves 

500

The flow or movement of electrons through a conductor. It is the fundamental concept of the operation of electric devices and systems.

What is current electricity 

500

The components in this circuit are connected across multiple paths, allowing current to flow independently. 

What is a parallel circuit 

500

An unintended connection between two wires. 

What is a short circuit 

500

The transformation of energy from one form to electrical energy in power plants is called this. 

what is electricity generation 

500

A source of electrical power.

What is a cell
