  2. Electrical outlet tester - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_outlet_tester

    A receptacle tester being used to check for some types of improper wiring of an outlet. For this particular tester, proper wiring is indicated by the two yellow lights. The outlet tester checks that each contact in the outlet appears to be connected to the correct wire in the building's electrical wiring. It can identify several common wiring ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Test_light

    Neon test lamp for line voltages Non-Contact AC Voltage Detector. A test light, test lamp, voltage tester, or mains tester is a piece of electronic test equipment used to determine the presence of electricity in a piece of equipment under test. A test light is simpler and less costly than a measuring instrument such as a multimeter, and often ...

  4. Residual-current device - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Residual-current_device

    A residual-current device (RCD), residual-current circuit breaker (RCCB) or ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) [a] is an electrical safety device, more specifically a form of Earth-leakage circuit breaker, that interrupts an electrical circuit when the current passing through line and neutral conductors of a circuit is not equal (the term residual relating to the imbalance), therefore ...

  5. NEMA connector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NEMA_connector

    NEMA 10s are classified as 125/250 V non-grounding (hot-hot-neutral), and were designed to be used in a manner that indirectly grounds the appliance frame to the neutral, which was common before the requirement of a separate safety ground was incorporated in the National Electrical Code.

  6. Electrical fault - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_fault

    The time domain reflectometer sends a pulse down the wire and then analyzes the returning reflected pulse to identify faults within the electrical wire. In historic submarine telegraph cables , sensitive galvanometers were used to measure fault currents; by testing at both ends of a faulted cable, the fault location could be isolated to within ...

  7. Electrical wiring in North America - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_wiring_in_North...

    For power circuits, the color-coding uses the same colors as residential construction, and adds the additional wires used for three-phase systems. Black, Red and Blue are used for hot wires and White is used as the neutral wire in a 120/208 V circuit. Brown, Orange and Yellow are used as hot wires and gray is used as the neutral wire in a 277/ ...

  8. Ground and neutral - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ground_and_neutral

    If the neutral is smaller than the phase conductors, it can be overloaded if a large unbalanced load occurs. The current drawn by non-linear loads, such as fluorescent & HID lighting and electronic equipment containing switching power supplies, often contains harmonics. Triplen harmonic currents (odd multiples of the third harmonic) are ...

  9. Portable appliance testing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portable_appliance_testing

    A leakage current test is an alternative to the insulation resistance test. A deficiency of the insulation resistance test is that the DC voltage will not activate electromagnetic switches or internal relays etc. that are common in many modern power tools, computers, and TVs, etc. and therefore it can only test the appliance up to those components.
