Across
  1. 6. amount of current flowing through a device
  2. 7. automatic switch which opens the circuit if an excess of current tries to flow
  3. 8. arrangement of materials that allows current to flow
  4. 9. detects very small current flowing from the live conductor to ground
  5. 10. commonly called romex
  6. 13. devices are wired in line with one another so current must flow through each device to return to source
  7. 15. metal or plastic tubing with conductors running inside it
  8. 16. electrical work is measured in units called
  9. 17. point in the system where equipment can be plugged in or permanently wired
Down
  1. 1. force that causes the current to flow
  2. 2. current is allowed to flow back to the source without overcoming the resistance of the device
  3. 3. large switch that allows all electric power to the building to be disconnected
  4. 4. current can take one of two or more paths to return to source
  5. 5. commonly called BX
  6. 11. current does not return to the source
  7. 12. movement of tiny particles called electrons
  8. 14. force that slows the flow of electric current
