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?

One

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

First Sentence:

Is the Donald Trump Bible any different from a regular Bible? Has Trump altered its contents?

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

so, what happens?

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

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

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

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

What is some information about unprotected sex and pregnancy?

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

what exactly is a ‘surge’ protector?

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

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

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

This one hit behind the barn.

I took a video of my serve (60 FPS) and it took 0.4 seconds from my racket to the service line. How fast would you say my serve was?

What does a fuse do?

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.

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

A circuit breaker is similar, but is resettable.

Why do I sweat a great deal while exercising the same on some days and not so much on others?

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

Upvotes:

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

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

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.

Why can't white people just surrender their white privilege?

He then asserts :

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

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

What are the possible reasons for people feeling depressed after the holiday season? Why does being alone exacerbate these feelings?

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.

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

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

What is the reason behind some people wearing trunks instead of speedos when swimming in pools?

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

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

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?

What is lightning?

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

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.

Why do people who aren't trans feel the need to put pronouns next to their name or picture? It seems so cringeworthy to me, to participate in that SJW paradigm of thought, like they are a spineless person who just goes along with the trends.

Here is a simplified AC power diagram.

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

He then describes Rainy Season and Lightning.

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

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

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

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

In schematic diagrams this is the symbol for a fuse:

Barnstars:

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

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

[image of Common-mode choke]

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

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

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 device then solves the entire problem.

I post the exact comment here.

There are two important concepts here.

2024–10–16 [ OO OLAOYE OYEBODE ]

He then describes the function of a fuse.

a photo is worth a thousand words.

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

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

The other is “what does a “fuse” do?”

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

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

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

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

But it can get overloaded, and no longer works.

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

(Dc diagram shown, AC is similar).

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

At least they know the answer if they wanted it.

2024–10–11 [Victor Olarewsju Victor Olarewaju ]

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

There are three different concepts here that are getting confused.

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.

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

Edit 2024–10.

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

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