What exactly is the difference between a surge protector and a fuse? Can a fuse protect the electronic devices from lightning instead of surge protector?

eight

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

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.

During the Atlmark incident in 1940, the Brit war criminals violated Norwegian neutrality. Hitler could then justify invading Norway. Have the Brits ever apologized for violating Norwegian neutrality?

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

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.

but this device (an Inductor) … impedes the rapid changes in the current.

There are three different concepts here that are getting confused.

At least they know the answer if they wanted it.

What habits do happy couples have?

The other is “what does a “fuse” do?”

the problem then depends on "how fast does the fuse operate?".

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

Why is it that women are stronger than men nowadays?

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

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.

I am 11 years old and I think I am going through puberty. Why do my nipples hurt when I touch them? Is it normal?

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

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

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

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

What is lightning?

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

He then describes the function of a fuse.

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

In schematic diagrams this is the symbol for a fuse:

These devices are installed between the “hot” and “neutral” and protective ground.

I just cannot wake up early, even if I sleep on time. What should I do?

But… the neutral is now “floating” because of the 1 ohm resistance.

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

For this case there are devices called Metal oxide varistors (MOV).

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.

At one ohm, the resistor has a maximum of 1 watt power.

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

what exactly is a ‘surge’ protector?

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

So, it’s possible that these devices from Trip Lite have addition suppression devices, these ones seem to be sturdy.

But it can get overloaded, and no longer works.

This one hit behind the barn.

This is 'the assistant's answer'

2024–10–11 [Bobby Sanchez Bobby Sanchez ].

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.

This is the picture of an electronic coil of wire wound around a core of magnetic material.

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

“ … to protect building, lightning arrestor, is provided above building and directly connected to earth.”

“ 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”

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

I post the exact comment here.

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

“ A fuse is a device which protects the (circuit) against overload and short circuit.”

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

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

It’s been three xxx five werks, and there has been no response to my follow on query on his Commment to my answer.

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

The third is lightning and “how it gets conducted into a home.”

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

a photo is worth a thousand words.

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.

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

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.

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

A circuit breaker is similar, but is resettable.

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

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

This device then solves the entire problem.

One is “what exactly is in a ‘surge protector’ ? ”
