Electricity Takes the Path of Least Resistance

Welcome back to another electrifying video, this time we're debunking the common myth of THE PATH OF LEAST RESISTANCE! ⚡🛣️Show more

00:00 - INTRODUCTION
01:08 - TOOLS: Brief description about a few different multimeters
03:03 - Practice Exams
03:19 - SAFETY: Your body can become a path for electricity
5:10 - CODE: Pull out your NEC and open to 250.122 F2
6:23 - ELECTRICAL THEORY: Parallel Circuits
11:22 - DEMONSTRATION: Electricity travels on ALL possible paths!

In the INTRODUCTION, we throw light on the fact that electricity travels through all paths, not just the path with the least resistance, challenging a common misconception. ⚡🔀
In the TOOLS section, we examine three different types of multimeters, clarifying their respective properties and applications. Highlighting the OHM setting, we demonstrate its significance in accurately assessing resistance, an essential skill for anyone working with electrical circuits. 🛠️🔍
Safety is paramount, as we discuss in the SAFETY section. Here, we underline the potential danger of your body becoming a pathway for electricity if not handled with care. We stress that electricity requires two points to move through a conductor, including you! So, safety should always be your first priority.
In CODE TIME, we delve into the specifics of 250.122 F2, offering insights and practical interpretations of this critical electrical code. 📚💼
Next up is ELECTRICAL THEORY, where we delve into Ohm's Law and Kirchhoff's Law. We demonstrate how, even with different resistances, electricity will take all possible paths - a concept supported by mathematical evidence! 🧮📐
Finally, it's time for the DEMONSTRATION. Watch as Dustin constructs a parallel circuit with varied resistances, illustrating how electricity follows all paths, thereby debunking the myth that "electricity only takes the path of least resistance." 🧑‍🔬💡
