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?

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.

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

As a teacher, what's the most inappropriate experience you've had with a student?

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

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

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

How do I know if I am a bitch? I try to be a nice person but people often jokingly call me a bitch. My family calls me a bitch sometimes too.

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

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

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

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

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

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.

In schematic diagrams this is the symbol for a fuse:

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

Here is a simplified AC power diagram.

How will Israelis respond to someone claiming that anti-Zionism is not anti-Semitism, in the same way as anti-feminism not being misogyny and opposing same-sex marriage not being homophobia?

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.

Is Trump the greatest spiritual leader since Jesus?

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.

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.

This is 'the assistant's answer'

Why do people think Justin Bieber is worse than Joseph Stalin?

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

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 other is “what does a “fuse” do?”

What sexual experience did you have at a highway rest area?

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

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

Edit 2024–10.

What are some of the differences between the Democratic and Republican parties? What policies does each party advocate for? What groups do these parties usually represent?

What does a fuse do?

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

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

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

If people in the UK hate Trump so much, why does he own golf courses there?

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.

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

There are two important concepts here.

Are there any more 'nun' jokes?

He then describes Rainy Season and Lightning.

Barnstars:

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

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

2024–10–11 [Victor Olarewsju Victor Olarewaju ]

“ 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”

This device then solves the entire problem.

He then describes the function of a fuse.

what exactly is a ‘surge’ protector?

What is lightning?

He then asserts :

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

so, what happens?

This one hit behind the barn.

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

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

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.”

But it can get overloaded, and no longer works.

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

Upvotes:

There are three different concepts here that are getting confused.

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

“ 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).

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

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

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

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

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?

(Dc diagram shown, AC is similar).

A circuit breaker is similar, but is resettable.

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.

I post the exact comment here.

[old diagram got deleted by accident]

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

a photo is worth a thousand words.

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

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

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

At least they know the answer if they wanted it.

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.

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