Voltage is as you know the potential to do work.
Amperage does work per say
My issue how is it that i can change the resistance of the flow of electricity to take down amperage flow and allow voltage to go through and do the work and indefinitely increase it if i had to?
Im a bit lost on this.. i know i can use resisters but id like to limit my Amperage flow to 1 amp or less like Miliamps and allow lets say 500+ volts to flow and do what i need...
As far as I know in the net amount of charge will always be conserved. You can't just get amps to disappear but to to reduce the amperage to an object you wire your resistor into a parallel configuration with your object. Depending on the resistance of your resistor(since current will flow through the path of least resistance) some of the current from your battery will go to your object and the other portion to your resistor?
