Alternatives to fuses include circuit breakers and resettable fuses, also known as polyfuses or PTC (Positive Temperature Coefficient) devices. Circuit breakers can be manually reset after tripping, providing a reusable option for overcurrent protection. Resettable fuses automatically restore functionality once the fault condition is removed. Both options offer advantages such as convenience and reduced maintenance compared to traditional fuses.
What else can I help you with?
Which of these are alternatives to fuses?
circuit breakers
What is an overcurrent device?
breakers and fuses
Why do your auto fuses keep blowing?
could be that the regulator in the alternate is failing and causing power surges in the electronics and the fuses are blowing to prevent damage to the device and vehicles wiring.
What do car fuses do?
A device designed to provide protection for a given circuit or device by physically opening the circuit. Fuses are rated by their amperage and are designed to blow or open when the current being drawn through it exceeds its design rating. They are designed to protect the electrical circuits in your car from a short circuit or overload.
Name of the rhetorical device that limits consideration to only two alternatives when there are in fact more than two?
Terms of reference.
What do you use fuses in?
Electrical circuits, to limit the maximum current flow. Fuses will "blow", or burn out, and cause an open circuit, to stop the flow of current when it could potentially damage a circuit, system, or device.
What device protects an electrical circuit?
An example of a circuit protection device is a fuse. Another example is a circuit breaker.
When a notebook internal device fails what three options can use to deal with the problem?
you can use the file shareprogram...-Alternatives to fixing (upgrading)•Return notebook to manufacturer or service center•Substitute external component for internal device•Replace the internal device
How do fuses or circuit breakers help protect homes?
During an electrical fault, be it a short circuit or circuit overload, fuses and breakers are designed to open at a specific amperage. This opening of either device eliminates a fire hazard before it gets a chance to start. This is how fuses and breakers protect the home.
Where are the fuses on a 2001 Sienna Van for the additional cigarette lighters that provide current for a PC or other electrical device?
you have to look under the hood in the fuse box there. the owners manual should tell you what fuses are what. i hope that helps.
What is a programmable logic ASIC?
Programmable logic ASICs is a classification of ASICs are programmed by blowing fuses in a device to alter the logic function.
What are anti surge fuses used for?
Anti-surge fuses are used to protect electronic devices and equipment from sudden power surges or spikes. They help prevent damage to the device by breaking the circuit when the current exceeds a safe level. These fuses are commonly used in electronics, such as computers, televisions, and other sensitive devices.
