These are also other measurements you need to know

Units of Measurement (2)

Voltage, current, and resistance are basic measurements of electricity, but when you need to apply electricity to television, you will need to know some other measurements. Among these are frequency, hertz, and AC frequency.

Frequency

Frequency is an action that repeats itself. If you have an electrical circuit that puts out repeated and equal bursts or pulses of energy at 100 of those pulses a second, the frequency of that circuit is 100 pulses per second. But we measure frequency in hertz (Hz), so the frequency is 100 Hz.

AC Frequency

In our earlier discussion of AC, you learned that the flow of electrons in AC current constantly changes direction. If the electricity ...
