Perpendicular to the circuit.
Some electrical conductors become superconductors when cooled to near absolute zero. This means they can conduct electricity with zero resistance, allowing for efficient electrical transmission and various technological applications.
Near magnets. This includes conductors that carry electrical currents.
The AC skin effect causes the flow of alternating current to concentrate near the surface of a conductor, reducing its effective cross-sectional area for current flow. This increases resistance and can lead to power loss and decreased efficiency in electrical conductors.
Blown fuses indicate overload in the electrical circuit. Possible short-circuit or higher input voltage.Tripped circuit breakers I guess means:A residual-current device (RCD), similar to a residual current circuit breaker (RCCB) which is used for breaking the circuit when electric current pass through a man or could cause fire/burning in the/near the electrical sockets.
A conductor is any substance that has 1 to 3 electrons in its outer shell. This includes many metals. Any most salts that are dissolved into water. Common electrical connections are made from copper, gold and silver.
Fuses & Circuit BreakersThe following generic answer applies to any electrical circuit, whether in a vehicle or in a building, or whether alternating current [AC] or direct current [DC].Fuses [and Circuit Breakers] are safety devices designed and installed in electrical circuits to protect the conductors [wires] and other components from short circuit conditions and/or overload conditions which can cause extreme overheating of the conductors that can result in damage to the insulation and the conductors. And in a worst case, the probability of a FIRE which could destroy the vehicle, house, or other structure in which the circuit is located.A fuse or circuit breaker that "blows" or "trips" is doing what it was designed, intended, and installed to do, protect the components of the circuit from the flow of excess electrical current.Some ignorant few will suggest installing a larger fuse or breaker to solve the problem, BUT that will only increase the hazard, not correct it. Do not follow "bad" advice and install a larger fuse in a misguided attempt to correct the problem. To install an oversized fuse would almost guarantee damage to the wiring and an electrical system fire.As to the direct answer to your question, any or all systems in a car can be [and usually are] protected by a fuse or circuit breaker.Sometimes a fuse or circuit breaker, or even a fusible link protects several circuits each of which may be protected by their own dedicated fuse or breaker. Examples of this include the fusible link in a vehicle, usually located near the battery protects the entire system and all the circuits. Or in a building, a "main," or "master" breaker is used to protect all the other circuits in the system.
Fields such as magnetic fields and electric fields are present near electricity. These fields are created by the flow of electric current through conductors and can interact with nearby objects and living organisms. It is important to be aware of these fields and take appropriate safety measures when working with electricity.

The circuit protection device typically found in the engine compartment near the battery is a fuse or a fusible link. These devices are designed to protect the electrical system from overloads and short circuits by breaking the circuit when excessive current flows. In some vehicles, you might also find a fuse box or relay box that houses multiple fuses and relays for various electrical components.
The main circuit breaker is typically mounted to the meter base, and is usually outside, where the electrical service comes into the house. Siemens is a large manufacturer of electrical components. You should be able to find Siemens equipment at several electrical supply wholesalers in your area. Note that many of the electrical wholesalers will NOT sell to the public; you may need to find an electrician or other contractor to purchase Siemens equipment.
