It’s either continuity through loads or you have the hot/neutral backwards. You should have continuity from neutral to ground. Why do I have 120 volts between hot and ground? You have an open neutral. Somewhere the neutral wire has become disconnected. Should there be 120V between hot and ground? YourRead More →

Capacitors work their magic by storing energy. The strong attraction of the charges across the very short distance separating them makes a tank of energy. Capacitors oppose changes in voltage. It takes time to fill up the plates with charge, and once charged, it takes time to discharge the voltage.Read More →

Automatic voltage regulators (AVRs) work by stabilizing the output voltage of generators at variable loads, but can also divide the reactive load between generators that are running in parallel (voltage droop), and helps the generator respond to overloads. What is automatic voltage regulation? Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR) in line interactiveRead More →

The maximum amount of electricity we use is 100 joules, though most patients require much less than this. (Defibrillation is around 300 joules). It is important to realize that a ‘course ‘ of ECT entails a series of treatments given 2-3 times per week until maximal improvement has occurred. IsRead More →

A fully charged battery will typically display a voltmeter reading of about 12.6 to 12.8 volts. If your voltmeter is showing a voltage anywhere between 12.4 and 12.8, that means your battery is in good shape. Any voltage above 12.9 volts is a good indicator that your battery has excessiveRead More →
