| Re: ballast leaking electricity? Last time. NO, current does NOT generate a voltage. A spinning magnetic field can generate a voltage but NOT current (amperes). Current is a way to measure the FLOW of electrons and is measured in amperes or amps. AND YES, voltage IS inversely proportional to current. Example - take a wire with a 120 volt potential and hold it to a grounded source. The VOLTAGE will go to zero and the current (amperes) will go to infinity and will stay that way until the voltage is interrupted/stopped. OHMS LAW is just that, a LAW of physics. Read it carefully. If I understand what you stated and under the same conditions, the 120 volts AND the current will rise??? Impossible! but try it out for yourself and see what you get. The formula is 120 volts x 0 resistance/hard ground = infinity amperes. |
