  • The live wire of domestic circuits is usually red and is at high voltage. The neutral wire is black and has voltage close to that of the ground. The potential difference between these two wires in India is about 220 V. The earth or ground wire provides safety against faults and current leaks. Earth pin is longer to ensure earth connection happens first while connecting and last while disconnecting any devices.

    I thought I hated physics but honestly I guess I just hate how they teach this in school and how we have to just "memorize" the answers only. Your video was so good and well made. Honestly helped me out big time, not just academically but to finally relate physics with daily life. Physics is so important, it sucks the way its taught, I never had this much fun studying physics ever. Thanks you so much! Keep doing it, you'll be helping so many people in the future!

    Sir! I can't tell how much I appreciate this video, I had a confusion from a long time about 3-4 months ago that had been disturbing me and there wasn't a better explanation in the world, just the first part of this video made me so happy. If I had been old and responsible enough to donate, you would have been one of the receivers. I feel obliged. "Feels illegal to not pay for this luxury level education". Thank you.
