Sample UPMSP High School Electrician Practice Questions

Try these sample questions to review concepts for the UPMSP High School Electrician exam. Each question includes a detailed explanation. Start the interactive quiz above for the full 100+ question experience with AI tutoring.

1What is the SI unit of electric current?

A.Ampere

B.Volt

C.Ohm

D.Watt

Explanation: The SI unit of electric current is the Ampere (A), defined as one coulomb of charge passing through a conductor per second.

2Which SI unit is used to measure electrical resistance?

A.Coulomb

B.Ohm

C.Joule

D.Hertz

Explanation: Electrical resistance is measured in Ohms (Ω), representing the opposition offered by a material to the flow of electric current.

3Which measuring instrument is connected in parallel across an electrical component to measure potential difference?

A.Ammeter

B.Voltmeter

C.Ohmmeter

D.Galvanometer

Explanation: A voltmeter has high internal resistance and must be connected in parallel across a component to measure the potential difference (voltage) across it.

4According to standard Indian wiring color codes (BIS), what is the color of the earth conductor?

A.Red

B.Black

C.Green or Green with Yellow stripe

D.Blue

Explanation: Indian Standards (BIS) designate green or green with yellow stripes as the protective earth wire color code to ensure safety identification.

5What is the primary function of an electrical fuse in a circuit?

A.To step up the supply voltage

B.To protect the circuit from excessive current by melting

C.To store electrical energy

D.To convert AC current to DC current

Explanation: A fuse contains a metal wire with a low melting point that melts and breaks the circuit whenever excessive current flows, protecting equipment and wiring from damage.

6Which mathematical equation represents Ohm's Law?

A.V = I * R

B.P = V * I * t

C.R = V * I

D.I = V * R

Explanation: Ohm's Law states that voltage (V) across a conductor is directly proportional to the current (I) flowing through it at constant temperature, written as V = I * R.

7Which electronic component or circuit is used to convert Alternating Current (AC) into Direct Current (DC)?

A.Inverter

B.Rectifier

C.Transformer

D.Inductor

Explanation: A rectifier, constructed using semiconductor diodes, converts alternating current (AC) into direct current (DC).

8What property of a conductor opposes the flow of electric current through it?

A.Conductance

B.Inductance

C.Resistance

D.Capacitance

Explanation: Resistance is the inherent property of a material that opposes the flow of free electrons (electric current) through it.

9Commercial electrical energy consumed by domestic consumers is billed in units of:

A.Kilowatt (kW)

B.Kilowatt-hour (kWh)

C.Volt-ampere (VA)

D.Watt-second (Ws)

Explanation: One commercial unit of electricity equals one Kilowatt-hour (kWh), which represents consuming 1,000 watts of power continuously for one hour.

10What is the primary safety purpose of earthing metallic bodies of electrical appliances?

A.To increase power consumption

B.To provide a low-resistance path for leakage current to prevent electric shocks

C.To stabilize the supply voltage

D.To decrease the current flowing through the phase wire

Explanation: Earthing connects the metallic frame of an appliance to the ground via a low-resistance conductor, ensuring leakage currents flow safely into the earth and trip protection devices rather than shocking the operator.

About the UPMSP High School Electrician Exam

The Uttar Pradesh UPMSP High School (Class 10) Electrician examination (subject code 977) is conducted by Uttar Pradesh Madhyamik Shiksha Parishad (UPMSP), Prayagraj.
