On a motor that is running. The current flowing through the motor depends on the lod that the motor is under, correct? 🤔 When you are checking current that is flowing through a three phase motor. Your checking each lage of the motor. You check the RLA first on the name plate of the motor. It's 35 RLA on the name plate. Your reading L-1 is 27 amps L-2 is 26 L-3 is 28 amps. So the motor is not under a full lode. It's not running at it's max capacity. I hoping you can make a video about 3 phase motors and current. Why each leg has a different amount of current flowing through it. I understand that each leg of power the voltage is not the same because they have to be out of phase from each other in order for the motor to turn. If it's 460 volts on the name plate . I normally read . L-1 is 471 volts L-2 is 481 volts L-3 is 477 , something like that as an example. The name plate says 460 but I'm reading almost 500 volts . I understand that it's because of the transformer from the incoming power from the main disconnect. It would be really great if you could make a video explaining.

Was the class in English? Or did you end up having one of those teachers who's kind of like that one guy at an open mic slam poetry night that is literally trying to confuse everyone with their abstractly eclectic vernacular. Almost like a professor that's attempting to go over your heads with constant use of unfamiliar and unreviewed terminology, as well as, copious amounts of assignments, that of which he's given to you with absolutely no prior instruction or even briefly covered with a general introduction? Cuz that was what every sort of general studies course that could be parlayed into a trade would seem to go for me when I was still attempting to unknowingly indoctrinate myself into a "College Graduate" with an MBA in "Electrical Engineering" with a Bachelor's in "Mechanical Engineering" and a focalized specialty Sub-Orbital Propulsion Mechanics. But being a rocket scientist isn't splits cracked up to be when you find out the truth about the fish bowl we're stuck on and there are more jobs making missiles than there are building "spaceships" since you kind of need "space" to be solid enough to provide resistance if you plan to maneuver around it with any combustion powered propulsion devices we've invented. So even if space existed in the way that they say, and "Empty-Nothingness" that somehow takes up room could be something that was possible, you couldn't fly around it with "Empty-Nothingness" as the only thing for the rocket boosters or stabilizer jets to push off of. Therefore, when I realized it's all a big lie, I quit school and decided to find a job in a trade that doesn't involve me investing effort in a suspension of disbelief or being overcome by total cognitive dissonance, in order to fulfill my duties as a competent employee. I actually believe in what I do, and I don't have to lie to myself and my colleagues everyday by pretending that we're sending folks into some imaginary version of the heavens that doesn't do one bit of justice to the reality that lies beyond the firmament. I refuse to pretend that I know what's up there, but I also refuse to pretend that it's even anything close to the incorrect theories that were invented to help balance out the unquantifiable amount of inconsistencies and infinities in the mathematics "SPACE" with "The Ever Expanding Size of the Universe", "Dark Matter/Energy", "Black Holes", etc... In short, I know what I don't know and I know what THEY don't know, and I'm perfectly fine with admitting what THEY can't.

High voltage rock 'n' roll High voltage rock 'n' roll High voltage, high voltage High voltage rock 'n' roll

[@marks6663]

If increasing the voltage causes more electrons to flow past a certain point in a certain time, then the amps are by that definition increased as well. And yet, we know that increasing the voltage does not necessarily increase the amps. So I am confused.

[@vjm3]

So the difference between Voltage and Current is: Voltage is the "push" of electrons, as in regardless of the area those electrons are moving through, they have a certain amount of "push" to them forcing them forward at a certain speed. Current, on the other hand, is the available area of electrons in the first place. Something with a larger area of electrons has more current, while something experiencing more electrons flowing through it have more voltage. For the longest time I didn't understand the differences between voltage and current, even though I knew how to calculate the V I and R relationship of them. Is it safe to assume a "thicker" wire will always have more current? Or is there an example of a thinner wire with more current? Does it have something to do with the wire's natural ability to resist "exploding" which dictates current capacity? Like, can a metal (like copper) when compared to others have a higher current capacity?

[@CodyLynn100]

You’ve gotten a few things mixed around here, I’ll try and clarify. So you have voltage correct in that it is the “push”, but there is not a specific speed. Think of pushing a box up the hill. You can push a box up a hill but will move slower if it is heavier. Current is not the area of electrons, but the flow of them through an area. The more electrons flow through an area, the more current there is. The area electrons can move through is noted as conductance with the inverse being resistance. A smaller area of flow such as a smaller diameter wire has a lower conductance and higher resistance. When something has more electrons flowing through it, it has a higher current. This can be caused by either a lower resistance from a larger diameter wire with more conductance or caused by putting a larger voltage across it. As for the wires and their current capabilities, a thicker wire can handle more current, but that doesn’t mean it will. We also switch wire sizes based on distance. 10A of current can flow through a 20ga wire that is only 1 foot long without issue, but the wire will need to be a bigger diameter to reliably send 5A over a distance of 50 yards. The current is smaller but a larger diameter must be used be cause the length of the wire adds resistance. The biggest concern is that, as he explained with a resistor, heat is generated by resistance. Flowing too much current causes a wire to get hot which can melt the insulation and even the wire. There are many different tables that give you the numbers and some will even give you the max current for aluminum and steel wires as well as copper. www.google.com/search?q=wire+gauge+chart&rlz=1CDGOYI_enUS709US709&oq=wire+gaug&aqs=chrome.1.0l2j69i57j0.4134j1j7&hl=en-US&sourceid=chrome-mobile&ie=UTF-8

[@michaellinner7772]

I think people have trouble understanding AC current because they think there must be something coming out of the cord the way water comes out of the tap. It doesn't help that we refer to it as the "flow" of electricity. I visualize it and try to explain it like people packed into a subway car and when one person bumps another person it can cause a chain reaction of bumps that move from the source of the bump to the other side of the car but, everyone in it has stayed in place. It's not quite right to equate pressure with flow however. With the example of water, you can have a great deal of water pressure but very little water actually flowing out of the tap. Water restricting shower heads deliver high pressure while reducing the actual amount of water coming out. So in that case opening up the flow will reduce the pressure. In a way they're opposites or at least related in a kind of symbiotic relationship.

[@JazzyByDefalt]

I've just started learning about circuits and electricity and I've been really struggling to understand the difference between Voltage and Current. Then you said you can measure the presser of the tank if its not flowing but not the rate it flows at and it clicked! The difference seems so obvious now, thank you!

[@NeilMarcellini]

I thought the way you described Coulombs was a bit confusing. One Amp is one Coulomb per second, but one coulomb is just 6.24x10^18 electrons. Not 6.24x10^18 electrons per second right? Because then one Amp would be 6.24x10^18 electrons per second per second.

[@terrym5385]

You'll notice from 10:32 to 10:44 that the number written in script (six quintillion, two hundred and forty-two etc.) differs from the number shown in numeric form (6,424,000,000,etc.). Of course the former (and subsequent scientific form, 6.24x10^18) is correct. Considering the effort taken to produce this excellent, informative lesson in electricity, this small oversight is testimonial to man's tendency to err, and should be kept in mind when attempting any electrical project. Always recheck your work and then still be prepared for mistakes. Hopefully your mistakes will be as inconsequential as this one.

It's never explained why you get 3 amps in the "main wire to and from the battery" mentioned at 13:24 . From what was said up to that point in the video, one would think it would be 1.5 amps. Here is the missing bit of information that should have been explicitly stated: "In a series circuit, adding more resistors increases total resistance and thus lowers current. But the opposite is true in a parallel circuit because adding more resistors in parallel creates more choices and lowers total resistance. If the same battery is connected to the resistors, current will increase."

At first, I just wanted to watch only a few videos but I didn't think I'd get hooked up learning about these stuff. I'm no engineer because I got kicked out from my chemical engineering program but would still like to preserve whatever I learned. Now I began to understand the math, physics and mechanics of things. It usually takes me 2-3 tries to pass a course though. Hence, I ended up becoming financially broke (got no money to go to school even to this day). Though I now work as I chemist, these free videos really helped me understand things I didn't know before. I feel like I'm well learned than my batch of colleagues even though I'm literally a failure. After 3 weeks, I've finally finished this playlist (I only watch when I'm in the mood otherwise I wouldn't remember a thing).

Does a resistor only take away the energy of a electron flowing through the cable? But if a electron loses energy, in other words, speed, then won't it also travel slower after it has passed the resistor? If so, wouldn't the resistor get congested with elections due to the incoming faster electrons having to wait for the slower sluggish electrons? Then wouldn't that congest also all the wire that is before the cable? Wouldn't then the whole circle just stop moving and the resistor stopping to heat up?

I’m so confused as to the explanation of why we default to teaching conventional current. I already knew that electrons flowed from negative to positive but wouldn’t it be easier to just teach that? Who cares if the manufacturers still label the negative terminal and positive terminal “opposite” of what it should be. Just teach the negative side as having negative charged electrons flowing to the positive side. That’s how I remember it. Pretty stupid to teach it as conventional if you ask me.

[@CodyLynn100]

So it comes down to the markings used on components. Diodes and batteries are the biggest contributor, but electrolytic capacitors and other polarity based components or constructions affect this. Because they were all based on conventional flow, it needs to be understood that that is what they were designed for so that the engineer or technician doesn’t hook something up incorrectly. The best case scenario being it doesn’t work, but the worst case is an explosion. And component flip explosions are fun. Another thing with conventional vs electron flow representations is how systems are designed. The creator here has fallen into this trap on several occasions because he tries to represent most everything with electron flow. However, often when he combines AC with DC, he merges the two which can be confusing to those not practiced on circuit theory. You can look back in this video even where he showed an AC to DC rectifier and drew it with conventional flow. A big thing that also comes with AC and how it works to the conventional flow is ground. While it is true AC doesn’t technically have a dedicated flow, we often use a conventional flow model to explain AC connections from the power plant to the load and into ground, or, for outlets, from hot to neutral. This, coupled with the fact ground itself is negative both by conventional design and by relative voltage to the atmosphere, makes the conventional method the more practical approach. Electron flow is only noted because it is what is happening.

[@stikndip]

Hectic Hive Back in the day when Ampere, Volta et al were experimenting with electricity, nobody knew about atoms, let alone electrons. It was a 50% punt whether or not they got it right. There are rules about rotating machinery that rely on conventional current flow: Fleming’s right hand grip rule for magnetic polarity and current flow in a solenoid and Fleming’s right hand generator and left hand motor rules. These would have to be changed in order to make sense of electron flow. Not impossible but more expensive than saying electron flow is opposite to conventional current flow. 😊

[@TriThom50]

@@CodyLynn100 what is interesting about these videos is that the difference between the conventions is all about the value. Those that typically use electron flow put a positive value of current from - to +. Conventional current can show the direction of electrons as well, with a negative value.

[@TriThom50]

Conventional current is actually correct. Since electrons were defined as a negative charge, and current is the flow of charge, then conventional current will be negative in the direction of electrons. Electron flow "pretends" the electron is positive and thus positive current is in the direction of electrons but there is no need to do this.

"High voltage"

[@johnprice4847]

I have never studied about electricity. Barely studied anything in primary school, didn't have that in high school. Now in college, i need the knowledge. You've explained it incredibly

[@aryanpatel4750]

😍😘😍😍😘😘😍😘😍😘😍😘😍😘😍😍😘thank you so much sir

[@طهالاسوانى-ه3ح]

Your followers from Egypt .. Your presentation of the episode is beautiful and wonderful .. We demand that the episodes be translated into Arabic متابعينك من مصر .. تقديمك للحلقه جميل ورائع .. نطالب بترجمه الحلقات باللغه العربيه

[@EngineeringMindset]

It's expensive to translate and not many followers on the Arabic channel. We can't afford to currently without donations

[@buder5116]

my question is if i use the same fuse on AC and DC will it burn at the same amp ?

[@marufboss8230]

Thank you ❤️😘 How to work LED display please explain it

[@gsanchez9457]

Any chance you can make a video about LEDs/Ballasts/Drivers? Great video as always!

[@EngineeringMindset]

Yep, these are all in the works. I'll tag you when live

[@rozakhakimova]

I got the notion of conventional current, I do not understand - Why we would need to change name of the batteries..?? How would it help?

[@xGee16]

I’m 23 years old went to a trade school after HS then I went to get my CDL to drive trucks now I want to try something better like electrical engineering haven’t done math in a while 🥲 just watching videos preparing my self I’m not that smart I will try if I fail at least I tried sometime next year I will be applying unless I change my mind but it does has my heart to go for it 🙏

Hi, Can you please explain the purpose of using both a capacitor and an inductor?. We know that a capacitor stores energy in the form of electric field while an inductor stores energy in the form of magnetic field. But, how do we benefit from these properties of these two components. Why do we need the stored energy? Thank you

[@thegreatzoom5073]

It's not just the fact that they store energy, but that they do so over time. This gives some interesting properties, like capacitors/inductors having "resistance" (in the form of impedance) when the voltage they see changes rapidly. Explaining this wouldn't really help with understanding what these parts are used for though. One way inductors are used is as a choke, or a component that limits current spikes. Inductors store energy in a magnetic field and the more current that flows through the inductor in a short amount of time, the stronger the magnetic field becomes. This magnetic field will actually interact with the current in the inductor and try to prevent it from changing too quickly. The faster the current wants to change, the stronger the magnetic field that opposes it. This forces the current to change slowly rather than in an instant and can be useful in some devices that may see intermittent shorts where current suddenly shoots up.

Something I didn't get and had to find out. 1 Amp is calculated taking the Watts and dividing it by Volts. 1.5 Watt / 1.5 Volts = 1 Amp ?? Also, why is the 1.5 v down to .75 after going through 2, 1.5 watt bulbs? (13:02) I don't get the math on this... I'm confused here after...

[@ZZ-vl5nd]

I swear I was thinking about this yesterday before I went to sleep 😁 and now this drops.

[@EngineeringMindset]

Glad to be of help

[@7636kei]

0:41 Hey, that's a nice attention to detail! :)

[@RichardBronosky]

Yes. But did you notice the typo at 10:34?

[@7636kei]

@@RichardBronosky Touche. To be fair, I've yet to get there when I typed that up.

[@EngineeringMindset]

I'll be honest, I'm good at maths not spelling. The video editing software doesn't have a spellcheck built in 😓

[@RichardBronosky]

The Engineering Mindset your need AI to point out that 6,424... doesn't translate to 6.24... I would have never made a to level post because I have great respect for your work and show it to many people at my Maker Space. Keep up the great work! ☮️❤️🌈

[@RichardBronosky]

7636kei Oh but any jerk that would have picked that out of such great video can't be trusted "to be fair." 🤔 And that's why I wouldn't have made that comment except as a joke reply to you. And I believe that noticing a typo wouldn't have prevented you from making a deserved complement. It is only very recently that I ever heard that copper always has that electron jumping atoms but it isn't useful because it is random and balanced. It's a mind bending fact. I've been doing this for 38 years and still learn daily.

[@mironricardo]

What!?!?!?!?! So electrons flow from negative to positive but it doesn't matter because as long as the juice is flowing at all, it's all good and gravy!?!?!?!??!?!?!

[@juligrlee556]

Maybe at some point you would like to discuss an oscillator in the circuit of a DC current which produces radio waves such as is used in RF surgeries, garage door openers, perhaps laser treatments of skin or thermolysis. How much heat is produced? How is it controlled? How is the heat directed in a mono antenna such as a needle or surgical "knife", non-knife cutting device?

[@jonfloate3891]

I am a 47 year old man and am learning how electricity works. Over the years I had a good idea but at work I am in school learning new things that require electrical knowledge of vehicles. I am here to learn, thank you for providing a good teacher.
