we call them ground fault breakers
10 milliamps thru you instead of the normal current path can kill you
if you have a neon test lamp connect it to one of the hot leads and earth the other.
if it lights the earth leak detector is faulty.
if it opens the breaker its good
most here in the usa have a test button
An earth leakage circuit breaker is a device use for protecting electrical appliances from excess current. An earth wire connects the appliance from the plug point to a metal plate in the ground. If excess current flows through the appliance the current will flow through the earth wire in the plug and directly towards the metal plate in the ground. This is called the earth leakage current. The excess current is dispersed in the ground. An earth leakage circuit breaker operates by means of a switch controlled by an electromagnet, a device consisting of an iron or steel core that is magnetised by electric current in a coil that surrounds it.
elcb (earth leakage circuit breaker ) is earth protection in generator, transformer and electrical equipment
the same way as any breaker
the breaker detects current that isnt in the current carrying conductors
sometimes known as fault current or ground current or earth leakage
no rubber stops the flow of electricity

power source, wire, switch, end fixture. Simplest circuit would be a power source and a heating element. No wire or switch needed.
Water is a good conductor of electricity. Should your hands be wet while working with a live electric circuit, the odds are increased that you will accidentally complete a connection and give yourself an electric shock.
Shut it off and lock it out. Sign the lockout card and keep your key with you.

If you mean by activity, working on an electrical circuit, then it is for safety reasons that a switch is opened. Most companies now use a proper lock out procedure so that everyone is aware that the circuit has been locked out. If more than one person is working on the circuit each person is required to have their own personal lock on the open switch.
No
The circuit stops working because of the short circuit
stabilizer circuit diagram
Depending which circuit burned out, yes.
when the fuse is not working
Nope... if the circuit has a gap in it - the path of electrons is interrupted, and that would stop the circuit from working.
None. A circuit does not need a light but in school experiments it is and easy way to see if the circuit is working.
The selection of overload protection for motors is taken from a table in the electrical code book. It is based on the full load current rating of the motor.
