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?

He then describes Rainy Season and Lightning.

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

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.

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

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

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

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

Have you ever had sex with your female cousin? How did it start?

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

But it can get overloaded, and no longer works.

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

While emptying a house, have you ever seen something in it that blew your mind?

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

There are three different concepts here that are getting confused.

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.

Was there any slavery of white people that actually compares to the transatlantic slave trade? I’m not baiting or anything actually genuinely curious and want to know.

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

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

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

I see ugly guys dating gorgeous, "hot" women all the time. I, too, am not very attractive but I'm not doing well with the ladies. What's their secret?

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

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

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

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

The other is “what does a “fuse” do?”

My wife has a bunch of really attractive friends, and she expects me to never say anything to her about how beautiful they are. Does this seem fair? I love my wife, and just commenting shouldn’t hurt anything, right?

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

At least they know the answer if they wanted it.

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

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

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

Why is my ex trying to provoke an argument with me?

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

“ 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”

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

He then describes the function of a fuse.

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

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 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.
