Conductor Insulator silver wood Material that best transports electricity Material that does not allow a current to pass through it plastic copper graphite rubber carbon alcohol water-containing ions pure distilled water In a salon, most currents are carried by cords which are copper wire (conductors) insulated by varying amounts of rubber. Chapter 4.1 Electricity Principles of Electricity

Cords on appliances should be kept straight and free of knots, kinks and tangles to prevent breaks. Warning! A break in any electrical cord can put you or your client in contact with an active current, causing electrical shock. Chapter 4.1 Electricity Principles of Electricity

AMP VOLT OHM WATT HERTZ Strength Power box to house supplies amps Conductors carry limited number of amps Amp rating is the number of electrons flowing on a line Pressure Measures how hard electrons are pushed by the source 110/220 volts 220 volt has “V” prongs on plug Large motors need 220 volts Resistance Impedance Measures how difficult it is to push electrons through a conductor OHM’s rating = resistance to the motion of electrons in a conductor Amount Used 1 watt = small amount of energy Blow dryer = 1000 watts per second 1000 watts = one kilowatt Frequency Hertz = Hz Number of cycles, per second, a generator alternates the current from the source 1 hertz = one cycle/second Chapter 4.1 Electricity Principles of Electricity

Beyond the Book The flow of electricity in a human produces violent muscle contractions that prevent the person from “letting go”. Receiving a shock may cause the heart to lose its coordination or rhythm.

Alternating Current (AC)
Electric Current Two Forms: Direct Current (DC) Electrons move at an even rate in only one direction Alternating Current (AC) Electrons flow first in one direction and then the other DC AC Chapter 4.1 Electricity Principles of Electricity

Electric Current Overload and Short Circuit Overload
Too many appliances on one circuit being operated at the same time More current flows than the line is designed to carry Takes 1 amp on the circuit to operate every 100 watts of an appliance 1,000 watt blow dryer needs a 10-amp circuit Risk of fire occurs when an extension cord with multiple plugs attaches 4 or 5 appliances to one wall socket Chapter 4.1 Electricity Principles of Electricity

Electric Current Overload and Short Circuit Short Circuit
A “foreign conductor” comes in contact with wire carrying current to a load Commonly occurs in thermal styling tools due to twisting and bending of cords Example: dropping a blow dryer in water Chapter 4.1 Electricity Principles of Electricity

Electric Current Beyond the Book Thomas Edison invented the first commercially practical incandescent electric lamp. The lamp itself was perfected on October 21, 1879 which put into circuit the first bulb embodying the principles known as the "Edison modern incandescent lamp." This bulb maintained its incandescence for over 40 hours.
