Well thinking back Larry no one ever told me that when i started on this forum as a uneducated electrician with no MIT schooling heres a old theory i read which has me wondering ?????

Its called the Peltier Effect .

When a current is passed across a junction between two different metals heat takes place but can be reversible .

meaning heat produced during the passing thur one way in a conductor now heres the big one guys if current is returned during the 1/2 cycle in the ac wave it does the opposite now in the junction of passing current in the other direction has the effect of absorbing the heat when the current travels back in the other direction during the ac cycle .

Could this be how Harmonics work?

Heres one more in a closed circuit of two different metals if no voltage or current is present if you heat it current flows if you cool it current stops .


This really gets me how does a super conductor conduct?

Copper material heat is greater when current flows from hot junction to cold junction and less when its flowing from cold to hot.


This makes one think a bad junction is a good junction?

This kinda makes one wonder about how a electron gives off heat one way but if its going backwards towards its original place in time it now cools or absorbes heat back into itself ?

Electrons travel is not in a straight line the poles one talked about hitting are the other atoms which they are passing around in time placement in orbit they are electrons spinning at different points in orbit so they shoot off at different points and pass at different angles if there matter is less resistive they take shorter paths if there material is high in resistance they take longer paths .

But what if anything do i know i just run pipe all day .

That seems to be one theory.

I love being young and being able to admit not-knowing must be annoying to be an old-timer and have to sound like a know-it-all all of the time

I find the younger crowd more apt to be afraid to say "I don't know". That is really annoying and can be a big time-waster for us old folks who don't have a lot of time left to waste.

It's not that the old timers are trying to sound like know-it-alls, it is just that they are know-a-lots. Any real old timer will tell you the more you learn, the more you realize how little you know.

More than once, I've explained exactly that to my dad, who thinks I know everything about electricity.
