    It cut faster cause of the space that opened up for the chips of metal to go. It wasnt a closed space. But love what your doing. Im in the middle of swaping a 200cc engine on to my honda grom clone. And im thinking i might have to go with fuel injection. Due to space and your videos are definitely helping

    Excellent video, thank you. . You said the ground works as a return path but I would argue that it does not (in certain situations) and you can see that by measuring the non-ohms law effects on the transmission of high voltage and frequency, similar to the way you did in your video. Also different materials were used for the transmission line including water tubes, carbon cables and glass, meaning really very high resistance or completely isolated. . The research shown in this video presents those effects of non ohmic laws power flow. kzread.info/dash/bejne/rJhp3KN8oMqefZc.html . Now, one key element here is frequency, in your case you are 60 or 50hz but in the research of the video presented it is much higher. . Anyways, man, great work and perfect transcript.

    As a dealer tech that’s done plenty of these repairs I’ve seen a really helpful trick for getting the crack lines to fill in away from the center. While the hole is filling with resin, lightly heat the inside of the windshield with a lighter starting at the middle of the chip and working outwards along the crack lines. This helps thin the resin to better get into the cracks!

    The safety issue here is that you cannot privide effctive electrical safety protection eg short circuit or earth fault protection are not possible. Further the step potential at your earth stake is probably OK in your soil, but say someone does this in dry sand they could be killed if they touched the earth rod. I agree with the transfer voltage dangers which you do cover , but the casual implications of a near by swiming pool is scary.... I recommend you take site down before someone gets killed

    In 1861 telluric energy was discovered in the Alps. Today this technology is commonly called an earth battery, EB. Earth batteries work great at producing voltage. We can build an earth battery in series and create as many volts as desired. However, the amperage in an EB is very low. This is what has hindered the usefulness of the amazing earth battery. Here is how to build an earth battery. kzread.info/dash/bejne/k3d3rZNsYrKvd6Q.html Adding amperage is quite simple and key to making real power. Power = Amps * Volts. We have to increase the current in amps to produce any real power. A simple law of physics shows that wiring in parallel will add the amps of the power sources. We need to introduce a source of high amps. A solar panel wired in parallel to the EB will give the circuit much needed amps. I built this and tested it several times. It works. This hybrid system can produce limitless green energy. The secret will be to have a special solar panel built. One that wires all the photovoltaic cells in parallel to maximize the amperage. One 4 inch square photovoltaic cell produces 3 amps. This super amp solar panel will make the system a powerhouse.

    This is the question that I was wondering the answer for too long. Thank you for the explanation. I am also wondering that where the neutral wire goes from our homes? To power plant or transformer? Where does it connect?

  • @DielectricVideos
    @DielectricVideosАй бұрын

    The neutral wire typically goes to a common grounding conductor that is shared between all loads in a given section of the distribution system. This is connected to grounding conductors at each utility pole and to the neutral/center taps of the transformer secondaries. Any neutral current from your house completes the circuit by returning to the transformer center tap on the secondary side.

I'm concerned damaging the oscilloscope if I connect neutral probe to the chassis and the positive probe to 230v load.

  • @DielectricVideos
    @DielectricVideosАй бұрын

    I usually connect the oscilloscope with the ground pin removed from the power cord. This can also be dangerous, though, as the chassis of the scope can become live. A safer way is to plug the oscilloscope into an isolation transformer.

    Fantastic sub-genre of Automotive engineering! I'm in between many projects, but this has me thinking. Can you utilize a mechanical-electronic gate such as for example, On a single cylinder engine with a magneto on the flywheel, If we placed a hall window and sensor on the flywheel for roughly 45-90 degrees before TDC, in effect creating a crank sensor? With a single cylinder, all we would need is a gate and the map sensor to modify pulse width. I would throw temperature out the window, run it slightly rich, and adjust the fuel pressure to get there. (edit) - Since the single cyl doesn't use a distributor, I'm interested in the simplest solution. Running a Tecumseh 4hp on a pocketbike frame with a billet connecting rod and 24mm Mikuni carb clone. What do you think of this for a simple single injector, single cylinder setup?

    I used a professional for a crack that looked similar by size and shape. The result is very much the same to your novice repair. The remaining traces of the crack lines disturb me more than the little dot in the center. My opinion: It's worthwhile doing it, but if it's within the direct line of sight, I would get the wind shield exchanged. Also note: It's a one-off! If the first attempt failed there is no 2.try.
