What else can I help you with?
What would cause a varistor to burn?
Overload - excess voltage causes excess current, and the combination causes excess power dissipation, leading to overheating. If the varistor was included to help dampen voltage surges, then a very "dirty" supply. with large numbers of surges, can lead to overheating.
What is excess voltage?
Excess voltage refers to a voltage level that exceeds the normal or expected operating voltage in an electrical system. This can result from various factors, such as voltage surges, spikes, or improper system design, and can potentially damage electrical equipment or compromise safety. Managing excess voltage is crucial to ensure the stability and longevity of electrical systems. Protective devices like surge protectors and voltage regulators are often used to mitigate its effects.
What is electronic breakdown?
Most electronic devices have maximum voltage or current ratings, so if you exceed these maxima, you can expect them to breakdown...ie: Malfunction. Most breakdowns are permanent, so removing the excess voltage or current will not cause them to recover.
What if a solar flare hit a power plant?
A bad flare can induce excess voltage in the power lines, which can cause the the power plant to shut down, or even get damaged
What is the difference between a voltage converter and a voltage regulator?
the difference between a voltage converter to a voltage regulator,is that a voltage converter,converts or changing the desired voltage to be used while the voltage regulator,regulates the input of the voltage amount not to excess to its inputs.
What cause excessive ripple voltage from a power supply.?
I think the cause of ripple voltage would be from a bad ground or capacitve voltage.
What is withstand voltage?
It is the rated test voltage that will not cause insulation breakdown.
Can a corroded battery cause a voltage drop?
Yes, a corroded battery can cause an intermittent voltage drop.
Why even excess application of manure does not cause pollution?
Let's be quite clear about this. Excess application of manure DOES cause pollution.
Why you ground and bond?
Grounding and bonding are important in electrical systems to ensure safety. Grounding prevents the build-up of excess voltage that could result in electric shock or fires. Bonding connects metal components to prevent dangerous differences in voltage that could cause electric shock.
Why resistance is use in circuits?
To prevent excess voltage to enter in a diode or LED etc
What will happen if 110 volt microwave plugged into a 220 volt circuit?
If a 110-volt microwave is plugged into a 220-volt circuit, it will likely be damaged due to receiving double the voltage it was designed for. This excess voltage can cause overheating, component failure, or even a fire hazard. It's important to use devices with the appropriate voltage or use a transformer to convert the voltage to the required level. Always check the voltage specifications before plugging in any appliance.
