short circuit occurs when two wire which consist of one live and neutral wire are in contact with the main and the other end of the wire are touched each other short circuit occurs
Short circuit blowing fuse or breaker.
You will get a short circuit if two uninsulated parts of the supply conductors, touch each other. You can also get a short circuit if the "hot" supply conductor touches any grounded metallic part of the system.
It depends if the short are before or after the device. The short circuit will cause high amperage trough the device and then blown. (JP)
No
Yes, it possible to do a short circuit test of breakers at a project site.
No because a circuit without power applied can only be shown to be a short circuit after the power is applied between the 'right' two points.
difference between p type and n type semiconducter materialAnswerInsulation is used to prevent a short current. To protect the circuit should a short-circuit fault occur is either a fuse or a circuit breaker.
Because a whole circuit needs a short circuit to work. It's like a remote; the remote is the whole circuit and the batteries needed are the short circuit. if those batteries are broken, the remote won't work. In other words, without a short circuit, a whole circuit can not occur successfully. Hope this helped, Charlie the Grey
The circuit resistance is likely to gradually drop and in such case it will cause the circuit to burn down.
No. A circuit breaker is like a fuse, it protects a circuit from a catastrophe if a dead short should occur.
Since load current is determined by dividing the supply voltage by the resistance (for d.c., or impedance for a.c.) of the load, a short circuit would theoretically result in an infinite supply current. This is because a short circuit has, theoretically, zero resistance. In practice, however, the current would be cut off by the operation of an overcurrent protective device -such as a fuse or circuit breaker- which would disconnect the short circuit from the supply voltage. A worst-case scenario could occur should you short-circuit a car battery with, say, a spanner (wrench). With no fuse to protect the battery, the resulting short-circuit current, if sustained, may be high enough to cause catastrophic damage to the battery.
1. That if a short circuit occurs we will get a sign before short circuit will happen or not ? 2. what we can do ? 3. how fuse can get a short circuit ? 4. which wires we have to use from preventing short circuit ?
The fuse in a plug is designed to blow and cut off the current in a circuit before the rest of the wiring and components are damaged or burnt-out should a short-circuit occur.
A fuse is an overcurrent protection device, which protects a circuit by melting in the event of either a sustained overload current, or a short-circuit current. A short-circuit current will occur when a line (not 'phase') conductor makes direct contact with a neutral (or earth) conductor.
It protects the circuit from from further damage if a direct short or overload should occur.
No. A short circuit would be zero ohms.
Long winded but true.
