Transfer of Electrical Energy?

Really? What a Spam!

The question is not very clear. Do you mean 'what happens between the power station and my house', or 'what happens between the battery in my Sony Walkman and my ears' ? You could be talking about electrical energy in the human body for all I know.

Clarify - what do you want to understand. To diverge, when we don't know the answer to something it's often because we can't formulate the question in our own minds. I'm not being patronizing or insulting, it's unlikely I can help, but you will not get much help from anyone unless you can explain your question in more detail.

If it cheers you up any, I like 'basic' questions. We all need the occasional jolt, which is what explaining something can do.

I'll be back soon, my drink is getting warm .

The electrical contractors will tell him!

..and now I just spilled the flipping drink !

What?

A condescending AND vacant comment... nice first post.

Uh, that's his second post.

His first one proves he's not very smart and can't spell.

No, this thread was his first post.

His second comment demonstrates some grasp of the dangers of an antique press brake.

First or second, doesn't really matter. Either way, a vacant and vapid comment was made here. Perhaps the CR4 spall chigger doesn't work for him.

Dex, we all take a ribbing here and we all jest, so don't be put off. However, there is a tendency for young sprogs to use here for homework as their brains are in their pockets, (known as cell or mobile phones). Put this down as 'apprenticeship training'. There is much info to gain and give, but the sprogs like to BS here. Have fun and enjoy it all. And don't stop posting. Welcome to the Crazy Zone.

You are discrediting your superiority by calling others idiots.

Want to be taken serious prove it and don't babble!

Dex, I honestly can't remember my first post, but I am quite certain I didn't use it to insult another member of this forum.

Dex, are you a product of outcome based education?

That is to ask: Where did you go to charm school?

Could you explain to us idiots what a bilologicle system is, and maybe read the rules for posting, again?

Thank you.

Wow.

Well, Dex, I had thought you were a shallow, inconsiderate, pompous fellow with insecurities too numerous to seriously contemplate.

I was incorrect; You are an obnoxious jackass. In hopes there is nothing lost in the translation:
Sie sind ein Esel.
Jste blbec.
Rydych yn jackass.
Tu sei un asino.
Usted es un idiota.
Ikaw ay isang uto-uto.

You're the product of an outcome-based education and you didn't like the outcome?

How long did it take you to get so comfortable with it?

Welcome to forum.

One thread is not enough to judge the quality of their posts.

And how did this guy find out that I have a lumpy butt?

I did guess it! But however he did . . .?

You need to work on spelling, punctuation and manners.

I have taken the liberty of copying and correcting some of your finer work in your insulting post.

"your ugly your stupid and you stink" should be, You're ugly, you're stupid and you stink," with the first word of any sentence capitalized.

Admin!

Please!

Take him out or we will!

Dex Rexford, by any chance are you related to Fred Garvin?

I'm guessing the question is just fine. He seems to be seeking ways to send the electrical energy from a generator to a receiver without giving hints in order to get more innovative thinking. That is, maybe from a satellite by microwave to an antenna on earth--that is, how can the transfer be done without wires?

I'll find out if I'm right after I read farther!

His home page is :http://wWW.findelectricalcontractors.co.uk

Seems a little strange to me.

One answer:

Wire!

Best answer I have seen so far on the list.

cesare

And here I thought it was a London tube train. I saw it at the weekend, full of bright sparks! Wire you say! Hmmm!

Forgive my previous comments. In order that people can help, let me begin with trying to get one step foreward. WHY do you need to understand the transfer of electrical energy ? What is the nature of the problem that needs to be solved ?

OK OK I know I shouldn't GOOGLE for other people but this one just seems to need help sooooo badly! By-the-way I GOOGLed "Transfer of electrical energy"...isn't it amazing how that works?

Best bent wire. Absolutely.

Those are positrons, right?

its a flow of electrons

First I'll examine the evidence.

You claim to live in Colorado, USA. Your signature line is supposedly your webpage for electrical contractors in Manchester England. You ask us a question about electrical energy like a grade school student.

I'm not sure if I should be insulted by you or embarrassed for you.

Please tell me you have a point here.

OP, for your information.
I've just blacklisted your company from a UK electrical forum.

You're an embracement to the electrical industry.

Out of interest, why live in Colorado when your company is UK based? Something to hide? I think it's time for me to do a bit of digging around

Your new avatar, sir!

Can you please describe your question in more detail, otherwise you will get examples such as heat, motion, light, etc which answer your question but surely cannot be what you are after.

Well, you see, its like this, you can push electrons around with a magnet, but then you would have to explore the world of magnetic fields, a whole 'nother school of thought. Electrons (a mathematical quantum construct which helps you understand stuff but of course does not really exist in nature) has an interesting effect. Even if you can't figure out what the quantum construct is, you can certainly tell if it is not there! We call the absence of the electron a "hole". Holes move exactly opposite to the associated mathematical quantum constructs which we call electrons. If electrons move down a potential gradient, the holes will float up the potential gradient. Hole flow is key to understanding electricity because although we can argue until the cows come home about quantum theory and go off on a thousand tangents, there is no disagreement as to what a hole actually IS...a current of holes works and does the same job as a current of electrons in a wire. Now understanding semi-conductors requires a thorough understanding of "hole theory". You might find it easier to get your head around both semi-conductor and "standard wire" because holes are not mathematical quantum constructs.

Please study those links and get back to us.

Then we will discuss power....

Hey Shawn No one knows for sure how power is transferred over conductors. A lot is known but the actual events that take place are not known. We can only speculate. The More common speculation is that you can NOT move power through the conductor like you move liquid or air through a tub or pipe etc.. What WE THINK happens again this is not for sure but the best guess by the best minds. Power is transferred by Moving electrons into each other. For example. Think of one of those Science displays or toys that has usually 5 steel balls hanging and when not touched they are all just barley touching each other. Now. When you pull one back and let it go it hits the first on but the one at the other end acts as if IT was hit and it bounces up and away. If you grab two of the steel balls and let them go then two from the other end go away and up and then swing back and it goes back and forth. With Electricity it is similar. Electrons are excited and have more energy and hit the first one it connects with in the conductor and the energy travels to the far end or where ever something taps into the conductor or both. I Hope that helps you understand the most common and most excepted theory. One simple fact that helps this idea of how power is transferred is the fact that nothing we see is moving. And the fact that it would take time to get something from point A to B if it moved like liquid. But like the steel balls it is instant and does not travel through the wires anymore than the way energy is transferred through the Balls.Thus if in Boston and you put a current to a wire that travels to LA California ( about 300 Miles ) it happens about as fast as light travels. IT is slower than light but it close. No mass could make its way that far that fast with small amounts of energy and another point that makes this idea most likely is the fact that the speed is the same regardless of Voltage or Amperage as long as it is high enough to make the trip.

You don't need to know, it is shocking. Molee Cule is a fine example, so is Ms.Elle C.Tron.

Lightning!

How about a load of batteries inside a delivery van that is approaching its destination?

Ah! You mean a load cell!

rofl ! Perfect answer to a (I'm being kind) vague question.
