  2. Ground and neutral - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ground_and_neutral

    A hunk of copper is visible that is designed to be easily connected or disconnected from its place between two screws, rated for 600 A (as stamped on it). We also see the thick wires in standard colors (two yellow/green ground and two blue neutral), as well as markings PEN (protected earth and neutral), PE (protective earth) and N (neutral).

  3. Electrical wiring in North America - Wikipedia

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

    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 277/480 V. For grounding, regardless of the voltage, Green (or a bare wire) is used.

  4. Split-phase electric power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Split-phase_electric_power

    Usually, one of the live wires is black and the other one red; the neutral wire is always white. Single-pole circuit breakers feed 120 V circuits from one of the 120 V buses within the panel, or two-pole circuit breakers feed 240-volt circuits from both buses.

  5. NEMA connector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NEMA_connector

    All NEMA 1 devices are two-wire non-grounding devices (hot-neutral) rated for 125 V maximum. 1-15P plugs have two parallel ... 30P plug on one side and a 5-15R or 5 ...

  6. Ground loop (electricity) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ground_loop_(electricity)

    The ground potential at different outlets may differ by as much as 10 to 20 volts [4] due to voltage drops from these currents. The diagram shows leakage current from an appliance such as an electric motor A flowing through the building's ground system G to the neutral wire at the utility ground bonding point at the service panel.

  7. Electric power distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_power_distribution

    Three live (hot) wires and the neutral are connected to the building for a three phase service. Single-phase distribution, with one live wire and the neutral is used domestically where total loads are light. In Europe, electricity is normally distributed for industry and domestic use by the three-phase, four wire system.

  8. Stray voltage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stray_voltage

    Because both the primary and secondary of the distribution transformer are grounded, and the primary ground is grounded at more than one point, the earth forms a parallel return path for the neutral current, allowing part of the neutral current to continuously flow through the earth. This arrangement is partially responsible for stray voltage. [10]

  9. Three-phase electric power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-phase_electric_power

    Three-phase transformer with four-wire output for 208Y/120 volt service: one wire for neutral, others for A, B and C phases. Three-phase electric power (abbreviated 3ϕ [1]) is a common type of alternating current (AC) used in electricity generation, transmission, and distribution. [2]
