Q:I been having chargeing problems, and I found a tan with black stripe wire in wire harness by the alternator and I cant fig out where it goes. it has a factory conn. on it with a 3/8 diam. hole in it

okorder ually marked on the sheathing of the wire in gauge size or ohm rating. The fusible link could also be a fuse in some newer models and you can install an inline weatherproof fuseholder rather than fusible wire....just make sure the fuse is the appropriate one for the size wiring of the circuit.

Q:The output part of wire plastic and part of wire broken, and the connection lost sometimes, some taps used to wrap up but the connection is still not good.How to fix it permanently?

Only try to fix it if it is on the lptop side, DON't play with A/C power unless you're qualified. If it is on the safe voltage side you could cut the wire, strip back the wires about 1cm, and twist them together, then solder the wires. Before you join them slide a small piece of heatshrink over one side of it, then after joining and soldering the wires wrap a small amount of electrical tape around the bare wires then slide the heatshrink over it all and heat it up to enclose it all, Fixed ! If you need help with it let me know. Cheers,

Q:Im replacing the factory rear speakers in my car but cant figure on which wires are positive and which are negative. I went on a site for impalas but the color wires they have listed are not the same color wires in my car your help will be appreciated.

Left Rear Speaker Positive Wire (+): Brown Left Rear Speaker Negative Wire (-): Yellow Right Rear Speaker Positive Wire (+): Dark Blue Right Rear Speaker Negative Wire (-): Light Blue

Q:My renter took apart a timer that was hooked to a ceiling fan because the timer was clicking loudly.Now, I just want to simply install a normal on/off switch in it's place. There are two sets of wires coming into the box. One set has a red,white, and black wire coming from it. The other set has just a white and black wire coming into the box. I'm sure this is relatively simple for someone who has wiring expertise. How do I wire a normal light switch to these wires?!?!

Go okorder under search, type in single pole switch. A short video showing you how to do it will appear.

Q:A long horizontal wire carries a current of = 52 . A second wire, made of 1.00--diameter copper wire and parallel to the first, is kept in suspension magnetically 5.0 below.What is the magnitude of the current in the lower wire?

The lower wire is kept in suspension magnetically means that the downward force of gravity is equal to the upward magnetic force. Its NOT an easy problem so we need to solve it in small steps. Let's find the two forces acting on the lower wire: (*) Downward force of gravity = mg = (volume) x (density) x (gravitational acceleration) = (pi r^2 L) x(8920)x(9.8) = 0.06896L We assume the radius of the wire is 0.5 mm or 0.0005m, copper density is 8960 N/m^3, gravitational acceleration = 9.8 m/s^2 (**) Upward magnetic force = mu(zero) x i(one) x i(two) x L / (2 pi d) = 2.08x10^(-4) L i(two) mu(zero) is a constant = 4 pi 10^(-7), i(one) is the current in the first wire = 52A, i(two) is the unknown current in the second wire, d is the distance between the wires = 5 mm or 0.005m The forces are equal, therefore 0.06896L = 2.08x10^(-4) L i(two) We divide both sides by L (the unknown length of the lower wire) and now we can solve for the current i(two) ANSWER: i(two) = 331.5 A

Q:i have a black, red, and yellow wires in my trunk for a stereo system.i hear about this remote wire being blue (i have a sub/amp that needs a remote wire, ground, and battery) but i dont know which is which and where to put what.please help

ok hopefully you have a test light. take your test light and put in into a wire under your dash and see if the light comes on. if it does not turn your truck till it's in the run possition and see if the light come on. if it does tap into that wire for the amp turn on. remember you want no power when the truck is off and power when it's on or your battery will go dead when the truck sits! the red is battery the yellow is a key on power wire(you can use that one for the amp turn on if you wanted) and the black is ground.

Q:I am installing a GFCI outlet in the kitchen (20 AMP) the box that it is already installed in has more than nine wires running into it. What I need to know is how does one determine the load wires from line wires when there are multiple wires running to an outlet box?

You use some test equipment to determine which is the line cable. All of the grounds are connected together. Identify each of the remaining wires with numbers BEFORE you disconnect anything. After that you can make a wiring drawing of the connection box and device before you disconnect anything. Once the drawing is done you can tun off the circuit(s) and begin the changes. The line/hot wire and it's neutral are connected to the G F I line connections, the load connections are made to protect any down line devices. If you do not need to protect the down line devices all of the connections can be made before the G F I device. If this seems too much of a challenge for you the best solution is to have a qualified professional electrician do the work.

Q:A toy of 2.8N is suspended by two wires from a horizontal beam.One wire is 40 degrees to the vertical of the beam.The other is at 60 degrees to the beam.What is the tension in each wire?

The horizontal tensions in the two wires must be equal. The vertical tensions must add to 2.8N. Let the tension in the wires be t1 and t2. t1 * sin(40) <== horizontal tension in wire 1 t1 * cos(40) <== vertical tension in wire 1 t2 * sin(60) <== vertical tension in wire 2 t2 * cos(60) <== horizontal tension in wire 2 t1^2 = (horizontal tension in wire 1)^2 + (vertical tension in wire 1)^2 t2^2 = (horizontal tension in wire 2)^2 + (vertical tension in wire 2)^2

Q:When it is time to replace wiring in a building?

When the demand for power increases. They're many form of wiring. Knob and tube, brown rag wire( no neutral) BX and Romex style. All depends on your needs. Knob and tube is extremely antiquated and can be dangerous. You could also consult an electrical company and have them go over your house with you and see what they say. Most companies can give you an estimate or diagnosis on the electric in your home for free
