What else can I help you with?
Does the thickness of the fuse wire matter?
The thinner a piece of wire, the more the resistance and the less space there is. The thicker the wire, the more space there is and the more current is allowed into the wire. This allows the fuse to melt later.
How do you you measure the thickness of a thin wire?
To measure the thickness of a thin piece of wire we have got the instrument called the wire gauge. The thickness of a thin piece of wire is measured in mm.
What happens to the matter in copper wire when heated?
When copper wire is heated, the atoms within the wire vibrate more vigorously, leading to an increase in kinetic energy. This causes the wire to expand slightly in length and thickness. If heated excessively, the wire can eventually melt and transform into a liquid state.
How much metal wire need for 5 amps fuse?
The amount of metal wire needed for a 5 amp fuse would depend on the specific gauge and type of wire being used. Generally, a 5 amp fuse would require a wire with a specified thickness and length to safely handle the current without overheating or melting. It is recommended to consult a chart or calculator to determine the appropriate wire gauge and length needed for a 5 amp fuse in a specific application.
A method to work out the thickness of a wire?
You can use a micrometer to measure the diameter of the wire. You can also consult the wire's datasheet or product specifications for information on its thickness. Another option is to use a wire gauge tool to determine the wire's thickness based on its gauge number.
Does negative ground wire have fuse?
NO. Usually the positive wire will have the fuse.
Why is it dangerous to replace a fuse with a wire that bypass the fuse?
The wire may not melt and break if an unsafe current is produced.
What is an Grade an answer to what affects the resistance in a wire?
*the resistivity of the metal the wire is made of *thickness of wire *length of wire
What is the thickness of enamel on magnet wire?
aprox 10% of the diameter of the wire
What happened with thickness of wire if its length increase?
If you increase the length of a wire while keeping the volume constant, the wire's thickness will decrease proportionally. This is because the volume of the wire is distributed over a longer length, resulting in a thinner wire.
What is thicker a 8amp fuse wire or a 15amp wire?
The 15 amp fuse.
How do you change wire fuse for circuit breaker?
A circuit breaker does not have a wire fuse in it.
