AI Thread Summary
Aux in audio ports do not provide power, while audio output ports can vary significantly in power output, depending on their intended use. Headphone outputs typically deliver less power compared to outputs designed for speakers. Users are advised to consult their equipment manuals for specific power ratings. Repeated inquiries on the same topic are discouraged in the forum. Understanding the specifications of audio ports is essential for proper usage.

Hi

Sorry i was just wondering how if any how much power is provider by aux in and out audio ports?

Thanks

Well, an input shouldn't provide any power at all.

Audio output ports can vary enormously in their power output capabilities. Those meant for headphone use clearly are capable of less power than those meant to drive speakers...

Read the manual for your equipment.

Thread 'Underwater piezoelectric sensor array receive sensitivity'

Hi all I have some confusion about piezoelectrical sensors combination. If i have three acoustic piezoelectrical sensors (with same receive sensitivity in dB ref V/1uPa) placed at specific distance, these sensors receive acoustic signal from a sound source placed at far field distance (Plane Wave) and from broadside. I receive output of these sensors through individual preamplifiers, add them through hardware like summer circuit adder or in software after digitization and in this way got an...

Thread 'What happens if shielded cable has short to the shield?'

While I was rolling out a shielded cable, a though came to my mind - what happens to the current flow in the cable if there came a short between the wire and the shield in both ends of the cable? For simplicity, lets assume a 1-wire copper wire wrapped in an aluminum shield. The wire and the shield has the same cross section area. There are insulating material between them, and in both ends there is a short between them. My first thought, the total resistance of the cable would be reduced...

Thread 'Question about bonding ground and neutral'

I am not an electrical engineering student, but a lowly apprentice electrician. I learn both on the job and also take classes for my apprenticeship. I recently wired my first transformer and I understand that the neutral and ground are bonded together in the transformer or in the service. What I don't understand is, if the neutral is a current carrying conductor, which is then bonded to the ground conductor, why does current only flow back to its source and not on the ground path...
