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?

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

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

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

He then describes Rainy Season and Lightning.

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

Why is the show The Big Bang Theory so hated?

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

There are two important concepts here.

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

Why won't biden give a last minute deferred action TO ALL undocumented immigrants so Trump can't deport them? Obama issued DACA, why can't Biden issue something similar that protects ALL undocumented immigrants from deportation?

what exactly is a ‘surge’ protector?

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 one hit behind the barn.

What I have noticed is nearly every girl I try to connect with whom reject me are in their early 20s why is that the case?

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.

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.

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

Sometime ago, the Iranian Minister said that a US Navy aircraft carrier would be an easy target for 300 speed boats armed with Katyusha rocket launchers. Is this true?

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.

This device then solves the entire problem.

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

Atheists who have read the Bible and think that contains immoral things, why do you assume that?

a photo is worth a thousand words.

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.

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

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

I post the exact comment here.

He then describes the function of a fuse.

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

What are the differences between fuzzy, intuitionistic, and paraconsistent logic? Which one is considered the most useful and why?

First Sentence:

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

“ 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 world was flat, would it be possible to see Mount Everest if it was on the other side of the Earth on a clear sunny day?

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

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

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

Is it possible for the AfD to ever win the chancellorship in Germany?

Edit 2024–10.

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

There are three different concepts here that are getting confused.

What do you think, TikTok is nothing but another porn site? Do you agree or not? Why?

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

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

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

A circuit breaker is similar, but is resettable.

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

This is 'the assistant's answer'

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

The other is “what does a “fuse” do?”

But it can get overloaded, and no longer works.

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

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

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

He then asserts :

so, what happens?

2024–09–27 [ Mohan Rajaratnam Mohan Rajaratnam ] . Thinks you can get free electricity from nothing : Mohan Rajaratnam's answer to Is it possible to generate free electricity at home using a magnet or other low-cost methods? If so, how does it work?

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

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

Barnstars:

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

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

What is lightning?

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

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

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.

At least they know the answer if they wanted it.

In schematic diagrams this is the symbol for a fuse:

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

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

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

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

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

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

Upvotes:

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

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.

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

What does a fuse do?

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

(Dc diagram shown, AC is similar).
