Electrical Test – Electrical Fundamentals
– study material
Current/Amperage - ANS ✔✔the flow of electrons though a conductor
Voltage - ANS ✔✔the force or electrical pressure that caused current flow
Resistance/Ohms - ANS ✔✔the opposition to current flow
Fuse - ANS ✔✔Protects a circuit against damage caused by a short

Starter solenoid - ANS ✔✔A high-current relay that makes an electrical connection between the battery and the starting motor Charge indicator chapter 32 - ANS ✔✔Ammeter, Volt meter, or warning light that informs the driver of system condition Charging system harness - ANS ✔✔Wiring that connects the parts of the system Alternator - ANS ✔✔Generator that uses mechanical power to produce electricity Alternator Bearings - ANS ✔✔used to produce a low-friction surface for the rotor shaft Voltage regulator - ANS ✔✔Electronic device that controls output voltage and current alternator Battery chapter 32 - ANS ✔✔Provides current to initially energize the alternator and helps to stabilize alternator output Alternator belt - ANS ✔✔Links engine crankshaft pulley with alternator pulley to drive the alternator Diode - ANS ✔✔An electronic component that allows current to move in only one direction What is the function of the battery? - ANS ✔✔Acts as a capacitor. Supplies electrical power when engine is not running.

What is the component of the vehicle that places the most load on the battery? - ANS ✔✔Starter Motor
