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