Question

Why current flow in my t v

Answer 1

In order to understand how electricity flows, you must first understand what the key terms mean, as outlined below. One helpful way to think of electrical current is to imagine that it behaves somewhat like water flowing through copper pipes in your home. Although the analogy is not perfect, it is a helpful way to understand many of the key concepts. For example, just like water flowing through copper pipes, electricity flowing through electrical wiresencounters some resistance along the way.

Ohms

Ohms is the measurement of resistance to the flow of electrons through a conductive material. The higher the resistance, the lower the flow of electrons. This resistance causes a certain amount of heat to be generated in the circuit. The reason that a hair dryer blows hot air, for example, is because of resistance in the internal wiring that produces heat. And it is resistance in the tiny wires of an incandescent light bulb that causes it to heat up and glow with light.

Electrons

An electron is a negatively charged subatomic particle. In electrical conductors, current flow results from the movement of electrons from atom to atom individually, and from negative to positive electric poles in general. The charge on a single electron is considered as the unit electrical charge. It is assigned negative polarity. The negative flow of electrons is essentially the "hot" current that does the real work when electricity flows through the wires into appliances and light...MORE

Current

Current is the flow of these electrons in a circuit or electrical system.  Current is measured in amperage, often called amps.  Current is broken down into two types: alternating current (AC) and direct current (DC). Generally speaking, AC is the form of electricity that operates lights, appliances and outlet receptacles in your home, while DC is the form of power provided by batteries.
