Q:Should I call 911 if a frayed power line fell in my driveway?

Leave 911 for emergency calls. You should call the power company. Do not approach the cable, and if it is in water, do not step into it !

Q:I have a Netgear router and just now when I tried to plug the power cable back into the back of it, it would fit. I look more closely and it seems that the metal end of the power cable may be slightly bent. But I'm still confused because it's bent at the end of the metal, and even though the very tip of it isn't bent, that part still won't even slide into place a little. Could anyone help me in resolving this issue?

If it is the correct adapter for the router and it fitted before, gently force it and it will comfortably fit eventually. There is probably a reason it doesn't fit now (it has been pulled out with some force) so I would suggest getting a new power adapter for it if the above does not work

Q:I recently bought a Mackie CFX20 MKII and it came with a European 2 pin power cable but I need a UK 3 pin power cable.On the plug end of the cable it says (16A 250V~) but on the connector end of the same cable it says (10A 250V~) I have no idea what cable I need to buy for this so an answer to what I need or a link to what I need would be great.Thanks.

Look at the mixer itself and see what voltage it says on it, If it states 250V then you cannot use it in the USA as the voltage there is 110V.

Q:There have been severe storms in my country Kenya and power lines have fallen and caused a lot of injuries, some fatal to pedestrians, motorists and others.I am sure if power lines were covered with rubber sheathing or some other apopropriatde material, there would be less likelihood of electrocution, serious injury, fire or property damage. I am a lay person in these matters so I am talking from what I have seen.Thanks in advance.

One small addition to what has been said above, and that seem to have been forgotten: When a power cable breaks and falls to the ground, it acts exactly like a whip! It does not matter if it were covered with feathers, the simple whipping force would STILL cut a car in two... (I have seen a cable cutting a HOUSE in two!)

Q:my mom just ordered the kinect package for $149 but i didnt realise until after that i needed the extra power cable for the kinect controller (motion sensor thing)... and i dont have the $50 to get it either so if anyone has purchased this already does it come with the power cable or do i need to start trying to sell my xbox to upgrade to the slim?

It actually does come with one that connects to both the new and old xbox. Wait for it to come, and enjoy.

Q:I want to buy a 2nd power cable for a 22Hanns-G PC monitor (hg221a) but do not know what or where to buy one - any pointers

This is a standard item. Go to an electrical/electronic/computer shop with the old one.

Q:I need to change a cable that goes from public power lines to power meter because its skin/protecting shield is peeling off. What happens is that I need to fix this issue as soon as possible but do not know what kind of cable should be used for repair. I would greatly appreciate your help. Thank you!

examine the entire load modern-day score of the motor then length your cable for a voltage drop interior the wires of decrease than 5%. With that long of a run the voltage drop attention would be greater stringent than the optimal modern-day for the cord gauge.

Q:a. the potential difference between the forward and rear feet when the bear crawlsb. the potential difference between the bear and the cablec. the coulomb force between the bear who obtains charges when passing by the cable and the cabled. none of them

a. The bear has completed a circuit between the cable and the ground. Electrical current takes the path of least resistance and will flow through him rather than through the air which has a low conductance. Since the bear has a resistance the electrical energy will do work (the energy it takes to move electrons from one potential to another) to over come his resistance and some of the energy will be transferred to heat. This is why people who are electrocuted will burn from the inside out.

Q:So I've had my laptop for about a year and a half now and I've gone through 4 power cables, 3 non-factory. What happens with each one is, I plug it in, the blue light surrounding the hole turns on, the end of the power cable that plugs into my laptop gets super hot and either melts the power cable, or when I plug the cable in, the light won't come on unless I have it in just right. This usually starts to happen between one and three months after I get a new cable. It's starting to go through them faster now, any ideas?

you have a power short in the computer that's why it is getting to hot and melting the cables, get it seen to immediately

Q:Will the YJV22-0.6 / 1KV5 * 10 (cable or wire model specifications) Will this model represents what cable diameter

Do not worry, no problem, the power cord can withstand the general high temperature, not recommended to use extension cord, the more joints more easily lead to some inexplicable problems.
