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

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.

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

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

The other is “what does a “fuse” do?”

Why do men like BBW? What is the attraction?

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

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

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

Why do people immediately disregard subjects such as flat earth, without opening their minds/taking time to research?

In schematic diagrams this is the symbol for a fuse:

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

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

Why do women need to wear bras, in spite of the fact that the breasts are an integral part of the body?

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

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

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

I broke up with my boyfriend because he wasn’t transparent about his past, it hurts me and he doesn’t care. I told him in the beginning of our relationship that it was a deal breaker for me what do I do?

He then describes Rainy Season and Lightning.

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

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

Who was the guy that had sex with the AIDS monkey?

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

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

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

Why are white women so hard to date?

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.

What’s the best way to get over someone you love?

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

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

This device then solves the entire problem.

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

A circuit breaker is similar, but is resettable.

When gallery photos are deleted at the same time, why are Google photos also deleted?

so, what happens?

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

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

Has Great Britain ever been considered a "hyper-power" like the United States or Russia are currently considered? If not, why?

What does a fuse do?

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

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

What is your daily motivation and does it work?

Upvotes:

“ 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.

The human genome is stored on this tiny crystal disk, hoping future visitors will 'de-extinct' us - Earth.com

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

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

But it can get overloaded, and no longer works.

Are there really people who still believe the Earth is flat?

what exactly is a ‘surge’ protector?

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.

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

Is it possible to run away from home at 16? What are some essential items to bring for survival?

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

He then asserts :

Here is a simplified AC power diagram.

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

This is 'the assistant's answer'

There are three different concepts here that are getting confused.

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

One

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

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

2024–10–10[John johnson John Johnson ]

He then describes the function of a fuse.

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

First Sentence:

[image of Common-mode choke]

(Dc diagram shown, AC is similar).

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

a photo is worth a thousand words.

What is lightning?

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.

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

Barnstars:

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

Edit 2024–10.

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

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

At least they know the answer if they wanted it.

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

2024–10–14 [Omar Gharbi Omar Gharbi ]

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.

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

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.

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

This one hit behind the barn.

There are two important concepts here.

I post the exact comment here.
