Observation Report

1. There are Five holes in a wall outlet as shown in


figure. Tryti wants to test the wall outlet with Line
Tester. Please tell him that in how many hole of
outlet he can get the Line Tester lamp glowing.

2. The hole/s in which the Line Tester light is glowing; the terminal of wall outlet (Socket) is know
as
Live Terminal/s
Phase Terminal/s
Hot Terminal/s
All of above.
3. The hole/s in which the Line Tester light is not glowing; the terminal of wall outlet (Socket) is
know as
Hot Terminal/s
Neutral Terminal
Ground Terminal
Phase Terminal
4.
Pay attention on diagram shown. There are three pins. One pin is
thicker than other two. What is the name of this pin?
Hot Pin
Neutral Pin
Ground or Earth Pin
Phase Pin

5. In two pin plug there are only two pins; which one is the right
combination of pins
Ground and Phase
Ground and Neutral
Phase And Neutral
Hot and Live

6. Tryti used Electric Line Tester to test the wall outlet (Socket) but he found that the light of
Electric Line Tester is not glowing but when he connected the appliance with wall outlet (Socket)
its working. Check all the possible reasons for not glowing of light of Line Tester:

The On/ Off switch of wall outlet (Socket) was off.

Its impossible.

There was no electricity when he tested the wall outlet (Socket).

Not Glowing of light never means that wall outlet (Socket) is not working.

Tryti not touched the metallic top of Line Tester.

The light of Line Tester glows on 400Volt and above.

He had not inserted the Line tester in the Phase terminal.

Tryti had inserted the line tester in the Neutral terminal.

Tryti had inserted the line tester in the Ground terminal.

The Line Tester is defective.

Nothing is impossible.
