A physics / electrical / philosophical question.....

Lieutenant Scott · 2012-01-06T12:33:55+00:00

is my crude drawing of a swimming pool. There are four wires hanging inthe pool. L1 and N1 are live and neutral from an isolating transformer. L2 andN2 are live and neutral from another isolating transformer. Both are identicaltransformers. If you turn ONE of them on, then the current obviously flowsdiagonally across the pool. But what if you turned both on? Do they care whoseelectrons they get back? Can't electricity flow across the two short ends ofthe pool to lower the resistance? If not why not?

A very rare thing for me to do, but that's been sent to "My documents".
