  1. What is the difference between line and phase voltage?

    Jun 26, 2025 · 2 In a three phase system, I’ve heard line voltage described as the RMS of the voltage difference between two lines coming from the power source and phase voltage is RMS …

  2. How are current and voltage related to torque and speed of a …

    Sep 3, 2012 · Voltage instead "regulates" how fast a motor can run: the maximum speed a motor can reach is the speed at which the motor generates a voltage (named "Counter-electromotive …

  3. What, exactly, is voltage? - Electrical Engineering Stack Exchange

    Aug 22, 2020 · And also if voltage is like gravitational potential energy, how does more voltage mean more current? And here our nice analogy breaks down. In this sense voltage is more …

  4. Why does voltage drop in a series circuit but current stays the …

    May 23, 2021 · 3 Understanding voltage will clear your confusion as to why voltage drops in series circuits and currents stays the same. Hence I will try to explain to voltage (electric …

  5. voltage - What is CV & CC in power supplies? - Electrical …

    Jun 11, 2014 · In many power supplies, there's CV & CC indicators. What does they mean?

  6. Why does a resistor reduce voltage if V=IR? [duplicate]

    You should read this the other way. Voltage varies directly with current. "R" is the constant of proportionality telling how much it varies. If I add in a resistor to a circuit, the voltage …

  7. What is "forward" and "reverse" voltage when working with diodes?

    Mar 3, 2011 · The reverse voltage is the voltage drop across the diode if the voltage at the cathode is more positive than the voltage at the anode (if you connect + to the cathode). This …

  8. Different voltage sources in parallel - Electrical Engineering Stack ...

    Apr 11, 2019 · I realize connecting two different voltage sources in parallel is a contradiction (in an ideal circuit). But if I were to connect this in practice and measure the voltage across points A …

  9. How much voltage/current is "dangerous"?

    6 It's not the voltage but the current that kills, is a popular yet still incorrect incomplete answer. It is the ENERGY that kills. With static electricity you will will be exposed to voltages much, …

  10. voltage - "Ground" vs. "Earth" vs. common vs. negative terminal ...

    Aug 4, 2014 · Voltage has exactly the same problem: one terminal can only "have a voltage" when compared to another terminal. Voltage acts like distance: voltage and distance are …
