  1. 1. The unit of measurement of the electrical resistance of a material.
  2. 5. An electrical connection to the earth.
  3. 6. An electrical component used for connecting, breaking, or changing the connections in an electrical circuit.
  4. 12. A power system's layout of its substations and power lines.
  5. 15. The resistance to flow of electricity through a material.
  6. 19. The path followed by a flow of electric current.
  7. 20. A negatively charged particle that orbits the nucleus of an atom. The flow of electrons produces electricity.
  8. 21. An object surrounded by a magnetic field that has the ability to attract iron or steel.
  9. 24. A unit for measuring electric power.
  10. 26. An electrical device that will raise or lower electricity’s voltage and current.
  11. 27. Any material that will not allow electricity to easily flow through.
  12. 28. An electrical safety device consisting of a wire or strip of fusible metal that melts and interrupts the circuit when the current exceeds a preset amperage.
  13. 29. The smallest unit of matter. Everything in the world is made of different combinations of atoms.
  14. 31. A single or group of connected electric cells that produces a direct electric current (DC).
  15. 32. The flow of electrons.
  16. 33. Energy used to do work measured in watts.
Down
  1. 2. One million watts.
  2. 3. An electrical device or devices that use(s) electric power.
  3. 4. The ability to do work. Energy = Power x Time
  4. 7. A substance or material that allows electrons, or electrical current, to flow through it.
  5. 8. current Electric current that reverses directions at regular intervals.
  6. 9. Total loss of electric power from the power distributor.
  7. 10. A machine which converts mechanical energy into electrical energy.
  8. 11. The movement or flow of electricity through a conductor.
  9. 13. Lines Overhead or underground power lines that carry electricity through cities and neighborhoods to your home or business.
  10. 14. Current Electric current flowing in only one direction
  11. 16. An opening into which something fits, such as a light socket.
  12. 17. A unit for measuring electrical energy. (demand)
  13. 18. The unit of measurement of force used to produce an electric current.
  14. 21. Field An identified force that exists around a magnet or electrical field.
  15. 22. A large fan(s) that is coupled to a generator field. This turbine (fan) is put into motion by the force of water, steam, or hot exhaust gases that rotate the turbine.
  16. 23. Hour One kilowatt of electrical energy produced or used in one hour. (energy)
  17. 25. Measurement of current flow through a conductor.
  18. 30. A short duration of increased voltage.
