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?

Barnstars:

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.

It’s been over a month since I stopped taking sertraline but why do I still feel side effects like brain zaps and anxiety mood changes? The root cause of anxiety it’s your thinking and I perfectly master that better than before so it’s hard lately.

Here is a simplified AC power diagram.

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.

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

so, what happens?

At least they know the answer if they wanted it.

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

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

How did the DMK alliance manage to keep the BJP out of Tamil Nadu politics all these years? Is the picture now changing in Tamil Nadu after the entry of Annamalai?

The other is “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.

What would you change in the "Game of Thrones" storyline if you were one of the writers of the TV series?

There are two important concepts here.

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

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

Why do we exist, and why are we conscious?

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

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.

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

Flash floods kill 3 in West Virginia, several people missing after inches of rain fell in 30 minutes - CBS News

what exactly is a ‘surge’ protector?

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

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

I can’t get any girl I want, but I can just get some not my type of girls, so I feel I’m so ugly. What should I do?

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

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

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

Is spinach easy to grow?

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.

In schematic diagrams this is the symbol for a fuse:

What was your biggest culture shock going to Europe?

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

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

“ 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 'the assistant's answer'

I post the exact comment here.

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

Upvotes:

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

First Sentence:

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

(Dc diagram shown, AC is similar).

This device then solves the entire problem.

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.

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

There are three different concepts here that are getting confused.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

What is lightning?

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

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

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

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

But it can get overloaded, and no longer works.

This one hit behind the barn.

What does a fuse do?

He then describes the function of a fuse.

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

a photo is worth a thousand words.

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

He then describes Rainy Season and Lightning.

He then asserts :

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

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

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

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

A circuit breaker is similar, but is resettable.

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 I think this circuit , shows a few more pieces.
