nerve. Any of the bundles of fibers made up of nerve cells that carry information in the form of electrical impulses throughout the body. Nerves send sensory information to the brain and spinal cord and carry impulses to the muscles, organs, and glands.
Why We Love Large Ceiling Fans. Big spaces need large ceiling fans if you want to get any real sense of air movement and these big fans can take care of that. If you want to be counted as a large ceiling fan, you will need a blade span (diameter) of at least 52 inches (over 4 feet) or more. Truly large ceiling fan designs get into the 6-foot and even 7-foot range and that means all the more refreshing air circulation for everyone.
Low Amps. The majority of modern ceiling fans use less than an amp, averaging between 0.5 and 1 amp, depending on the model and the setting. One amp drawn by a ceiling fan is equivalent to about 120 watts. Low settings use less amperage while higher settings use more. For example, an average ceiling fan set on low speed uses about 0.25 amp, on medium speed about 0.4 amp, and on high speed about 0.6 amp. The amps listed for the model by the manufacturer normally reflect only the use of the fan motor and do not include electricity used by an attached lighting fixture. Photo Credits.
