Can you connect an electric geyser to a 5A power circuit of your home? What are the effects of it ?List the other electrical equipments can be connected to that circuit?
Answers
Answer:
Electrical energy is the product of power multiplied by the length of time it was consumed. So if we know how much power, in Watts is being consumed and the time, in seconds for which it is used, we can find the total energy used in watt-seconds. In other words, Energy = power x time and Power = voltage x current

Final Answer:
One should not connect an electric geyser to a 5A power circuit of our home, to a 15A power circuit.
The effects of connecting an electric geyser to a 5A power circuit is detrimental are detrimental to the safety of property and person.
The electrical equipment that can be connected to a 5A power circuit are the electrical appliances of less wattage like ceiling fan, LED light, bulb, tube-light, table fan, table light, mobile phone charger, etc.
Explanation:
The explanation is as follows.
- An electric geyser is a high wattage electrical equipment. which requires a considerable amount of power, in kilowatts, depending upon its rating.
- Electrical Energy is the product of power and time.
- Power is the product of voltage and current.
- Since the domestic power supply is rated at 220volts, the current of a 2kw electric geyser (say) will be more than the 5A, reaching to a level near 10A.
- Thus it is advisable to connect an electric geyser to a 15A power circuit to allow the required current to flow through it.
- Otherwise, it may lead to short circuit and the heavy current flow can either trip the circuit (if protection mechanism is on) or it may lead to a fire.
- The electrical equipment that can be safely connected to a 5A power circuit are the electrical appliances of less wattage like ceiling fan, LED light, bulb, tube-light, table fan, table light, mobile phone charger, etc.
Therefore, the following are the correct answers.
- One should not connect an electric geyser to a 5A power circuit of our home, to a 15A power circuit.
- The effects of connecting an electric geyser to a 5A power circuit is detrimental are detrimental to the safety of property and person.
- The electrical equipment that can be connected to a 5A power circuit are the electrical appliances of less wattage like ceiling fan, LED light, bulb, tube-light, table fan, table light, mobile phone charger, etc.
