Answer to Question 1

Voltage drop refers to a loss of voltage as it travels along a wire. This causes lights to dim, heaters to
put out less heat, and motors to put out less power and to overheat.



Answer to Question 2

In the electrical formula W = VA, W stands for watts, V stands for volts, and A stands for amperes.
The following relationships exist among the three: watts equals volts and amperes; volts equals watts
divided by amperes; and amperes equals watts divided by volts.
