Study Notes
Electrical Wiring Color Codes
- Neutral wires are typically colored blue in electrical systems.
- Live wires are commonly identified by the color brown.
- Earth wires are often denoted by the color green/yellow.
Natural and Tectonic Hazards
- An example of a natural hazard includes earthquakes, which can result from tectonic movements.
- Factors such as low housing costs or family ties are not reasons for living in high-risk areas.
- Hazardous locations are characterized by having potential dangers due to environmental conditions or human activities.
Tectonic Hazards
- An example of a tectonic hazard is volcanic eruptions, which occur due to geological processes.
- Flooding is not considered a type of tectonic hazard, as it is typically caused by weather events and not plate tectonics.
