Siemens (unit) plural. For a conducting element, electrical resistance "R" and electrical conductance "G" are defined as where "I" is the electric current through the object and "V" is the voltage (electrical potential difference) across the object. The unit siemens for the conductance "G" is defined by where Ω is the ohm, A is the ampere, and V is the volt. For a device with a conductance of one siemens, the electric current through the device will increase by one ampere for every increase of one volt of electric potential difference across the device. The conductance of a resistor with a resistance
Electrical wiring in the United Kingdom 1, 1.5, 2.5, 4, 6 and 10 mm. Sizes of 1 or 1.5 mm are typically used for 6 or 10 ampere lighting circuits and 2.5 mm for socket circuits. The earthing conductor is uninsulated since it is not intended to have any voltage difference from surrounding earthed articles. Additionally, if the insulation of a or neutral wire becomes damaged, then the wire is more likely to earth itself on the bare earth conductor and in doing so either trip the RCD or burn the fuse out by drawing too much current. Earthing and Bonding are used together to provide
