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?

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

What is lightning?

Are there girls here who like group sex?

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

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

He then describes Rainy Season and Lightning.

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

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.

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

If women see themselves as free, dignified, human beings just as good as men, can Trump hang it up and just lose in a landslide at last? How can men who like and respect women help improve womens' self-esteem?

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.

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.

The other is “what does a “fuse” do?”

Why is pornography still alive and not illegal? Why doesn’t the government do about tricking women into them?

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.

“ 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”

For those who were actually old enough to have experienced the 1970s and not for those who were born in the 70s. What were the pros and cons of that era?

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

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

At least they know the answer if they wanted it.

Why do I want to suck cock, after smoking methamphetamine?

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

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

This device then solves the entire problem.

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

What are some cool confidence hacks?

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

Why do so many men on the internet try to compete with women, or try to "humble" and bash them? There's so many videos across my tiktok and YouTube of men claiming how they're wanting to get back at women and put them in thier place.

He then describes the function of a fuse.

A circuit breaker is similar, but is resettable.

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

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

Which is the first MV you watched in Stray Kids?

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

He then asserts :

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.

How can one translate "You're welcome" from English to French using formal language? Are there any other ways to say this phrase in a more polite manner?

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

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

what exactly is a ‘surge’ protector?

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

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

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

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

But it can get overloaded, and no longer works.

What does a fuse do?

This is 'the assistant's answer'

There are three different concepts here that are getting confused.

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

Upvotes:

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

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

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

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

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

First Sentence:

In schematic diagrams this is the symbol for a fuse:

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

Here is a simplified AC power diagram.

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

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.

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

a photo is worth a thousand words.

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

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

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

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

2024–10–10[John johnson John Johnson ]

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

I post the exact comment here.

One

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

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

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

so, what happens?

Edit 2024–10.

There are two important concepts here.

(Dc diagram shown, AC is similar).

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

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.

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