Is it common for electric bathroom vent motors to trip an GFCI receptacle?
Unfortunately GFIs don't like motor loads. The start up current required to start the motor is often 125-150% of the running load current draw. This initial spike in current draw when the motor is energized is sometimes "misread" by the GFI as current going to ground or an imbalance between the hot and neutral current. If your GFI has tripped numerous times, it is likely getting "weak". Try replacing it first. If it still continues to trip, replace your vent fan motor.
What effect does transformer has a very low impedance on short circuit current?
Oh, dude, when a transformer has super low impedance, it's like opening up the floodgates for short circuit current to flow through, man. It's basically like giving a green light to a bunch of rowdy electrons to party hard and cause a massive current spike. So yeah, having a transformer with very low impedance amps up the short circuit current big time.
What is inverse time-current characteristics?
In circuit breakers this feature will provide faster or slower responses for larger or smaller overcurrents, respectively. Ie Big overcurrents will trip quickly, and small overcurrents will allow more time before tripping. This is good as it allows overcurrents time to correct themselves (like when a refrigerator motor fires up there is a spike in current) without tripping and requiring attention; and larger overcurrents (faults) will trip quickly keeping the circuit safe from overloading, and say, catching fire.
What is phase current?
A phase current is the current passing through a phase, whereas a line current is the current flowing through a line.
Why does collector current increase with base current?
the collector current is directly proportional to the base current
How do you reduce spike current?
by using capacitor on the line we can reduce spike current or we can use a capacitor bank for the rated line capacity.
What is a surge in voltage or current in an electrical circuit called?
A transient, surge, spike, etc.
Is Buffy and spike diaries closed?
If you are asking whether it is still possible for them to have a relationship, the answer is yes. In the current season, (season 9, in comic form), she and Spike are still battling evil together in San Francisco.
What happens when closing and breaking an inductive circuit?
When you close an inductive circuit, since an inductor resists a change in current, the initial reaction of the load is to look like a high resistance. As current builds, the resistance falls. With a theoretical source and inductor, current would eventually reach infinity, that is after infinite time, but practical sources and inductors will reach a plateau current. When you open an inductive circuit, again, since an inductor resists a change in current, the inductor attempts to maintain that current, but there is no conductivity for that current so, the inductor presents a high voltage spike in the reverse direction it was initially "charged" with. With a theoretical inductor, and theoretical infinite impedance, the voltage spike would be infinite. Again, practical inductors have a maximum voltage spike, but this spike can still be quite high, even thousands of volts, which can damage the circuit, so it is important to maintain a conduction path for the collapsing field, often a diode, or a resistor/capacitor filter.
What nicknames does Spike Christie go by?
Spike Christie goes by Spike.
What is the word 'spike' when translated from English to Japanese?
supaiku is spike as in railway spike Kasui is spike as in the thorn of a bush
Will starting current on a motor trip a gfci breaker?
A GFCI measures difference in output to return current. A Overload breaker in your panel is what trips from too much current. many are time delay and will not trip immediately from the less than a second of start up current spike.
What is a homonym for spike?
A homonym for spike is "spike," as it can refer to both a sharp-pointed object and a sudden increase or surge in something, like a temperature spike or a spike in interest rates.
How much is a spike of something?
A spike
What is a rare spike worth?
A rare spike, often in the context of collectibles or investments, can vary significantly in value depending on factors such as demand, rarity, and condition. For instance, in markets like sports cards or comic books, a rare spike can fetch thousands or even millions of dollars. The value is ultimately determined by what collectors are willing to pay and the current market trends. Therefore, assessing a rare spike requires careful consideration of these factors.
Is it possible to start a motor with starting current of 50 Ampere in a supply of 26 ampere?
Yes. Circuit breakers are designed to accommodate for a short-lived current spike. The motor does not draw high current for long at starting and hence it's possible.
What is a cooking spike?
a cooking spike is a Skewer
