Across
  1. 3. Will have fuses or breakers.
  2. 6. Safety feature which allows extra electrons a place to go in the ground.
  3. 9. The color will be Red, Black or Blue(3 phase)
  4. 13. Circuits which branch to various places throughout the building.
  5. 14. What gauge wire is used for 20 amps.
  6. 16. Any tendency of material to prevent electrical flow.
  7. 18. Copper or aluminum wire covered in vinyl or paper for insulation and protection.
  8. 21. An outlet that provides space for two electrical receptacles, leaving you room to plug in two devices.
  9. 23. A type of connector that twist over top of the wire needing to be joined together
  10. 25. What gauge wire is used for 30 amps.
  11. 26. Cuts off electricity flow. This is used in kitchens, bathrooms and other places where water is present.
  12. 27. A form of energy which produces heat, light, magnetism, and light and chemical changes.
  13. 29. Flexible metal sheathed wire which is insulated in vinyl and wrapped in paper for protection.
Down
  1. 1. Restricts electrical flow.
  2. 2. The color will be Bare Copper or Green
  3. 4. The flow of electricity through a conductor.
  4. 5. A closed loop that electrons can travel in.
  5. 7. Switch that trips when too much current passes through it.
  6. 8. What gauge wire is used for 15 amps.
  7. 10. Plug or cartridge containing strips of metal that melt when too much current passes through.
  8. 11. A tool used to remove the protective coating of an electric wire in order to replace or repair the wire.
  9. 12. loss of voltage as it travels across a wire.
  10. 15. Electrical Pressure.
  11. 17. Is when little or no resistance so the flow of electrons moves too quickly-blow a breaker or a fuse.
  12. 19. This is used to measure kilowatts being passed into a building.
  13. 20. It is a safety measure if the electrical draw is too much blows instead of starts a fire.
  14. 22. Tubing which contains individual wires.
  15. 24. The color will be White
  16. 28. Allows electrical flow.
