Does surge strips provide a built-in 15amp circuit breaker?

If the circuit breaker is in the off position there is no need of overload protection. Overload protection monitors the load amperage, If there is no amperage through the circuit there is nothing to monitor.


What is the conclusion of overheat protection of induction motor?

If the overload protection is set correctly to the motors full load amperage, any overloading of the motor will trip the protection and take the motor off line. Once the reason of the overload has been established and rectified, the overload protection is reset and the motor can be brought back on line.

What is the difference between overload and overcurrent?

Overcurrent protection is protection against excessive currents or current beyond the acceptable current rating of equipment. It generally operates instantly. Short circuit is a type of overcurrent. Overload protection is a protection against a running overcurrent that would cause overheating of the protected equipment. Hence, an overload is also type of overcurrent. Overload protection typically operates on an inverse time curve where the tripping time becomes less as the current increases.
