    Explaining the Relationship Between Voltage, Resistance, and Amperage: Does Low Voltage Cause High Amperage?

    Low voltage is generally not a cause of high amperage. In fact, low voltage can often result in lower amperage. Voltage, also known as electromotive force, is a measure of the electrical potential difference between two points in a circuit. It is the force that drives the electrical current through a wire. Current, on the…

  • How to Tell if a Low Voltage Transformer is Bad

    Is your low voltage transformer not working properly? Learn how to tell if it’s bad and what to do about it. Find out the key signs to look out for, including no power, overheating, strange noises, dimming lights, and inconsistent voltage.

  • What is Low Voltage?

    Low voltage refers to electrical systems that operate at a voltage lower than the standard voltage used in buildings and homes, which is typically around 120-240 volts. These systems are used for a variety of purposes, including structured cabling, access control, video surveillance, fire alarms, and security systems. Structured cabling refers to the organized and…
