Mohan forgets that a fuse is a one-time device, and needs to be replaced if it is tripped.

This is an electronic circuit designed to clamp voltages so that the Voltage Potential that appears at the outlet is never going to exceed the nominal value.

What happens to single guys when they get older?

Once the voltage goes over 0.0650 volts, then this fact can be used to amplify the difference, and turn the circuit breaker off , furthur down the line. Essentially that is what a RCD/GFCI does, it compares the incoming current, to the outgoing current, and if the difference between the two currents is over 5mA, then it trips the circuit breaker.

This is where this question deviates from being a 'generic' question, and becomes more specific.

Now when you have a certain ac resistance, then a current flows in a loop.

Are there any industries or sectors where ChatGPT is particularly well-suited for implementation?

Would individual surge supressors have save this equipment? most likely, since the surge supressor would take the jolt instead of the electronic components.

There is no harm in having the surge suppressor along with the fuse in the circuit. The fuse will not open up until the current melts the link. This will take time, and in the interim, that jolt will get transmitted into the power supplies.

OK, this is Mohan Rajaratnam’s definition of a Surge suppressor.

Can men enjoy receiving anal sex?

(There is no concept of polarity, in the loop because the current changes direction 100 to 120 times a second (power frequency).

“ A surge suppressor is the one which is connected at the input supply so that when there is a sudden change voltage it bypasses thereby protecting the (circuit) and electronic components”

These are simplified answers to the original question, and does not change anything I wrote above.

Have you had any paranormal activity situations happen personally to you or someone you know?

In schematic diagrams this is the symbol for a fuse:

so, the loop of wire then, when put together with another loop reduces the ‘noise’ on a power line.

An AC voltage/ current source, and an ac inductive load.

This device then solves the entire problem.

Can the fuse protect the electronic devices from lightning instead of a surge protector.

This is where the MOV conducts again, and dissipated the energy.

A fuse is a non-resetable over current circuit protector.

The bolt then partially travels down the line to your home.

If the nominal power is 4,000 watts then the current at 230volts is 16 amps.

And this is the problem alone. Is the power supply in the equipmemt designed with a lightning strike in mind? Some yes, others, no.

so, what happens?

It seems Mohan does not understand the difference between a comment and an Answer.

So combined with a device called a MOV or Metal-oxide-resistor, then forms the 3rd part of a “surge suppressor “.

but I think this circuit , shows a few more pieces.

First Sentence:

He then asserts :

What does a fuse do?

The other is “what does a “fuse” do?”

Because the load is inductive, the current lags the voltage.(by a bit).

So, the voltage could go up to 500 volts, and the fuse will not open up.

Fuses, on their own, then operate much slower than the MOV variable resistance, during the lightning strike.

When the current is 200% of the rated value , it will “go open” (the link metal melts) and protect the device.

(Dc diagram shown, AC is similar).

But during the surge, the fuse will not blow if it is a longer duration and lower value )10 to 50%).

Is the question then , "why buy a surge supressor, if the fuse alone protects the electronic circuits from a lightning bolt?".

This is a high voltage low current spike that comes down the line because of the power poles being struck, and the voltage suppressors activating on the primary side of the transformer.

A circuit breaker is similar, but is resettable.

This is a photo where a lightning bolt took out a home's complete mains distribution box, and a lot of electronic gear as well.

At the secondary, it is 1000 times less.)turns ratio). If it gets hit with a 100,000 volt bolt of lightning then the voltage arrestors conduct and clamp the voltage down to line voltage, ( but a small amount leaks down the line). This is the problem.

The MOV will conduct when the voltage exceeds 50% of line voltage.

I post the exact comment here.

Here is a simplified AC power diagram.

It also is a device that limits the change in current flow.

Lightning arrestor is a spark-gap device, and can be installed anywhere. What is important, is that the wire is thick enough to withstand the lightning bolt and conduct the energy away from the building.

P = e* I, so since I is 16 amps, then the voltage dropped is 1/16 volt or 0.0650 volts.
