Q:I'm trying to tighten the electrical wires on my car.Do I just use pliers and twist them tighter?Can I use my hands?-tightening the wires on my ignition switch and starterNeed to know asapNo B.S. just need to know how

I think that twisting with a pair of pliers is best, less chance of getting a nasty metal splinter in your skin.

Q:As in quot;I saw this pop up over the wireor quot;it came across the wire from Livingstonquot;.

Q:I am installing a ceiling fan. The directions say to connect the blue and black wire from the fan to the black wire coming from the ceiling and the white to the white from the ceiling using a wire nut. I have connected those with no problemThat leaves me with a green ground wire coming from the fan. However, the only ground wire coming from the ceiling is a naked solid copper wire. How am I supposed to connect those using a wire nut??

Threaded Wire

Q:The light fitting I bought has 1x Red Wire (A) 1x Green Wire (E) and 1x Blue Wire (N)...

The green wire is just a ground wire, black is usually the hot wire, that would leave the blue wire as the neutral wire. The white wire in house wiring is the neutral. The two red and one black from your wall is not standard in the USA, but it may be 220 volts. What kind of light fixture are you replacing, is it on a ceiling fan?

Q:How do you attach light wires to boat trailer frame?

There are a couple of safe ways to attach the wires. First is to run the wires through the inside of the frame rails. this protect the wires from abrasion and from being cut, pinched, or severed easily. The next best is to get a bunch of Electricians Zip Tie mounts. These have a sticky foot so that they can be mounted anywhere. Then you install small ZIP ties into the slots and form a loop. Run the wires through the loops to where you need them to go. Once you have the wires placed and connected, snug up the wires and clip off the extra ZIP tie and work toward the front of the trailer doing the same as the last. Once you reach the tongue of the trailer, be sure to leave plenty of wire for the connector plug to the tow vehicle (usually about 4' beyond the coupler). Then your done.

Q:Why is the current limiting circuit used to measure the resistance of wire by voltammetry?

Sliding rheostat, voltage sharing method and current limiting method can adjust the load current (voltage), but under the same conditions, the adjustment effect is different, the actual application should be based on the appropriate choice of appropriate methods.

Q:i am hooking up a wiring harness on a 2000 ford ranger and cant figure out the wires to hook up and what they are

you need to buy the harness for that particular truck, there's a plug already there for it, if you start hacking into wires you'll have more problems than you can believe. and I'm not going to explain it here, just trust me, there like $20 bucks and will save you a world of headaches.

Q:The power supply is at the fixture in this case. I have 2 black wires (1 is the hot, I connected the hot to the other black to continue to the switch. The other wires are 2 white wires, 1 red wire and 2 grounds. At the switch there are multiple wires, including 3 black wires, 1 red, 3 white and 3 ground. One of the black wires I know goes on to other fixtures in another room. My issue now is I cannot get my main fixture I was trying to change the switch on to work and don't know which wire to connect to the switch. Right now I have removed the switch completely so the other rooms lights will work. Here is how I have it set up now. At the fixture black to black, white to white, red capped 2 grounds capped together. At the switch area: Black (hot from the fixture) to 2 blacks, all 3 whites connected, red is capped, and grounds are together. Which wires do I connect to the switch to control the fixture and still allow the other rooms lights to work. HELP!

If you are having trouble wiring a light switch you shouldn't be doing it get an electrician otherwise you could cause a fire.

Q:Hello, I have a 4 year old Trane XR12 unit. Recently the compressor fan is noisy, and now stops when when under power after 5-10 min. The main fuses and breakers are fine, the fan spins freely when turned, the contactor pulls in fine, the dual capacitor checks out. But, the wiring of the capacitor does not match wire diagrams. Could this have caused the fan motor to prematurely fail?..............................Terminal: C red wire, FAN brown wire, HERM has both orange and purple. Schematic shows the purple wire should be with red wire on common C. The purple also leads to fan.

Hi, I looked at the schematic on-line. If you still have the original fan motor in the unit then you are correct. The center terminal on the capacitor should have the red wire from the T1 terminal of the contactor, the red wire from the compressor, and the purple wire from the fan. The FAN terminal should have the brown wire from the fan. The HERM terminal should have the orange wire from the compressor. The black wire from the fan and the black/blue wire from the compressor should lead back to the T2 terminal of the contactor. Again, that is if the motor is the original motor. If it was replaced at some point in time, the wiring colors can change from manufacturer to manufacturer, in which case it's possible that the new motor is wired correctly. There should be a diagram on the motor to show you the correct wiring configuration.

Q:does anyone have a wiring diagram for a rccb or can you explain how to wire one up . as an rcd has a wiring for connecting to earth but an rccb does not have that.
