Question
A residential wiring circuit is shown in Fig. P9.89. In this model, the resistor is used to model a 250 V appliance (such as an electric range), and the resistors and are used to model 125 V appliances (such as a lamp, toaster, and iron). The branches carrying and are modeling what electricians refer to as the hot conductors in the circuit, and the branch carrying is modeling the neutral conductor. Our purpose in analyzing the circuit is to show the importance of the neutral conductor in the satisfactory operation of the circuit. You are to choose the method for analyzing the circuit. a) Show that is zero if b) Show that if c) Open the neutral branch and calculate and if and d) Close the neutral branch and repeat (c). e) On the basis of your calculations, explain why the neutral conductor is never fused in such a manner that it could open while the hot conductors are energized.
Solution
The first step in solving 24.1 problem number 89 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: A residential wiring circuit is shown in Fig. P9.89. In this model, the resistor is used to model a 250 V appliance (such as an electric range), and the resistors and are used to model 125 V appliances (such as a lamp, toaster, and iron).
