Why do you have to remove the paper strip before turning a torch on?
It breaks the circuit and when it's removed the circuit is complete so electricity can flow.
A device that contains a thin strip of metal that will melt if there is too much current through it?
A fuse has a metal strip that melts and opens a circuit if the current becomes too great.
How do automatic circuit breaker work?
circuit breakers provide two basic forms of protection: overcurrent and short circuit The mechanism used on most simple breakers for overcurrent is a calibrated bimetalic strip > when it draws two much current it gets hot and bends the strip to trip a mechanical arm The mechanism used for short circuit is a electro-magnetic coil > when a fault current goes through the coil, it magnetically attracts a ferrous lever that trips a mechanical release Many larger breakers have electronic trips which monitor the above two functions plus others functions electronically, and a microprocessor then desides to trip the mechanical release
Does it make a difference if you use multiple outlets in the same room vs using a power strip to feed everything into a single outlet?
In home wiring usually either all of a room's receptacles are on a separate circuit or two rooms share the same circuit. From the point of view from the circuit breaker there is no difference, the circuit will open when the breaker's limit has been reached. The advantage of having receptacles all around the room is for convenience, as different electrical equipment can be plugged in where the person want the device to be. The main reason to use a power strip is when more than two electrical devices are needed to be in close approximation with each other. A good example of this would be a component entertainment center.
What are the main parts inside the programmable thermostat?
An electronic programmable thermostat has a printed circuit board on which is mounted a chip one or more relays LCD display terminal strip sometimes a backup battery
What should you do to the surge strip if the circuit breaker fails to reset?
You should replace the surge strip if the circuit breaker fails to reset.
Why put earthed strip between a circuit and the circuit board?
An earthed strip is a low resistance strip. as we know that a current always flows along a path which is having the least resistance.Whenever a fault current flows through the circuit and a possiblity is there that it may damage the ckt & ckt board the earth strip allows the fault current to flow through it and ground it. thereby preventing the damage.
Why do you have to remove the paper strip before turning a torch on?
It breaks the circuit and when it's removed the circuit is complete so electricity can flow.
How is a bimetallic strip used in a thermostat?
A bimetallic strip is used in a thermostat, by concealing it inside. When the temperature goes up, the bimetallic strip expands, and turns on the circuit for the AC/compressor ,to make the temperature cooler inside wherever the thermostat is.Two metal strips of differing thermal expansion are bonded together. Because the expansion is different the metals expand by different amounts. When heated the strip therefore has to bend, the one with the greater expansion on the outside of the curvature. As the strip bends it can either make or break a circuit contact depending on the configuration of the circuit, switching on of off the current. The reverse is true when the strip cools again.
What is air cicuit breaker?
Assuming you meant a not air. A circuit breaker is a device that prevents a circuit from overloading. When the current in a circuit reaches a predefined limit, the breaker trips and opens the circuit, stopping an overload. Commonly this is done using a strip of metal with one type of metal on one side and a different one on the other. The two metals have different coefficients of thermal expansion. When the current level is reached, the strip overheats. Because one metal expands more with heat the strip bends(high coefficient of thermal expansion on the convex side). This bending opens the circuit and prevents overload.
What are the devices contain in a circuit breaker?
The devices contained in a circuit breaker consist of a bi metal strip for over load protection and a small wrap of wire in the form of a coil for magnetic short circuit trip.
How do you make a circuit using bimetallic strip?
The bimetallic strip is made of two different metals, bonded together. The two metals have different temperature expansion coefficients, so when the bonded assembly is heated or cooled, it curves one way or the other, allowing a switch to be opened or closed.
A device that contains a thin strip of metal that will melt if there is too much current through it?
A fuse has a metal strip that melts and opens a circuit if the current becomes too great.
What is a bimetic strip?
A bi-metal strip is a bimetallic strip that is used to convert temperature changes into mechanical movement. It consists of two metals that expand by different amounts when the temperature changes, so it will bend when heated.
What are the contents of a tube light starter?
It is basically a bimetalic strip through which the starting flows for first few seconds and then supple bi metalic strip bends a little due to small heat generated in the strip and opens out thus breaking the starting circuit.
When dangerously high currents flows through a thin strip of metal melts which creates an open circuit and current stops flow?
This is the general description of how a circuit breaker operates.
Will your electronics work if you turn off the circuit breaker to the surge strip?
The only way your electronics will work if you turn off the circuit breaker to the surge strip is if they are able to run on battery power. If the surge strip is connected to a UPS (uninterrupted power supply) as many commercial offices are, the electronics will stay operable until the circuit breaker is reset or turned back on if purposely turned off. If the utility service is off, the electronics will stay operable until the power is restored or the UPS power source fails.
