What exactly is the difference between a surge protector and a fuse? Can a fuse protect the electronic devices from lightning instead of surge protector?

It seems Mohan does not understand the difference between a comment and an Answer.

He then describes Rainy Season and Lightning.

what exactly is a ‘surge’ protector?

Is TikTok a creation of the porn industry? To make porn more normalized and accepted? So the porn industry doesn’t lose customers?

but I think this circuit , shows a few more pieces.

Would individual surge supressors have save this equipment? most likely, since the surge supressor would take the jolt instead of the electronic components.

So, the voltage could go up to 500 volts, and the fuse will not open up.

Is it true that schizophrenia can sometimes be a demonic attack or black magic?

The MOV will conduct when the voltage exceeds 50% of line voltage.

“ A surge suppressor is the one which is connected at the input supply so that when there is a sudden change voltage it bypasses thereby protecting the (circuit) and electronic components”

Once the voltage goes over 0.0650 volts, then this fact can be used to amplify the difference, and turn the circuit breaker off , furthur down the line. Essentially that is what a RCD/GFCI does, it compares the incoming current, to the outgoing current, and if the difference between the two currents is over 5mA, then it trips the circuit breaker.

Can you explain the difference between “mi piace” and “mi piacciono” in Italian?

This one hit behind the barn.

A circuit breaker is similar, but is resettable.

At the secondary, it is 1000 times less.)turns ratio). If it gets hit with a 100,000 volt bolt of lightning then the voltage arrestors conduct and clamp the voltage down to line voltage, ( but a small amount leaks down the line). This is the problem.

“ … to protect building, lightning arrestor, is provided above building and directly connected to earth.”

Can you name an example of bad parenting?

Here is a simplified AC power diagram.

If the nominal power is 4,000 watts then the current at 230volts is 16 amps.

This is where the MOV conducts again, and dissipated the energy.

Why do some people have loving parents and some do not?

This is an electronic circuit designed to clamp voltages so that the Voltage Potential that appears at the outlet is never going to exceed the nominal value.

But it can get overloaded, and no longer works.

For this case there are devices called Metal oxide varistors (MOV).

Why are Democrats at Q so desperate that they keep taking down my links to comments that prove the residents in Ohio have been filing complaints about the Haitians eating the local wildlife from ponds in the local parks? Election interference

The third is lightning and “how it gets conducted into a home.”

I post the exact comment here.

This is a photo where a lightning bolt took out a home's complete mains distribution box, and a lot of electronic gear as well.

So combined with a device called a MOV or Metal-oxide-resistor, then forms the 3rd part of a “surge suppressor “.

An AC voltage/ current source, and an ac inductive load.

In the New Testament, Christ quotes the Ethiopian book of Enoch. How do the Sola Scriptura folks square this circle?

P = e* I, so since I is 16 amps, then the voltage dropped is 1/16 volt or 0.0650 volts.

Is the question then , "why buy a surge supressor, if the fuse alone protects the electronic circuits from a lightning bolt?".

What does a fuse do?

What is the nastiest thing you had your wife do and she loved it?

The other is “what does a “fuse” do?”

Edit 2024–10.

This is where this question deviates from being a 'generic' question, and becomes more specific.

It has been said that people with ADHD can often hyperfocus. Can that be an advantage?

This is a high voltage low current spike that comes down the line because of the power poles being struck, and the voltage suppressors activating on the primary side of the transformer.

(Dc diagram shown, AC is similar).

Why can't my adopted sister accept she is not part of my family because she isn't related? Why can't she stop calling my parents mum and dad?

And this is the problem alone. Is the power supply in the equipmemt designed with a lightning strike in mind? Some yes, others, no.

It also is a device that limits the change in current flow.

What can melt your heart?

(There is no concept of polarity, in the loop because the current changes direction 100 to 120 times a second (power frequency).

He then asserts :

There are three different concepts here that are getting confused.

Is Melania still angry that she failed as a model? Why is she so cold and hostile? Why did she blame everyone for her actions in her trite book?

the problem then depends on "how fast does the fuse operate?".

“ A fuse is a device which protects the (circuit) against overload and short circuit.”

2024–10–14 [Omar Gharbi Omar Gharbi ]

Now when you have a certain ac resistance, then a current flows in a loop.

Because the load is inductive, the current lags the voltage.(by a bit).

When the current is 200% of the rated value , it will “go open” (the link metal melts) and protect the device.

Barnstars:

At one ohm, the resistor has a maximum of 1 watt power.

This device then solves the entire problem.

One is “what exactly is in a ‘surge protector’ ? ”

A fuse is a non-resetable over current circuit protector.

a photo is worth a thousand words.

but this device (an Inductor) … impedes the rapid changes in the current.

He then describes the function of a fuse.

[image of Common-mode choke]

These are simplified answers to the original question, and does not change anything I wrote above.

Mohan forgets that a fuse is a one-time device, and needs to be replaced if it is tripped.

2024–09–27 [ Mohan Rajaratnam Mohan Rajaratnam ] . Thinks you can get free electricity from nothing : Mohan Rajaratnam's answer to Is it possible to generate free electricity at home using a magnet or other low-cost methods? If so, how does it work?

It’s been three xxx five werks, and there has been no response to my follow on query on his Commment to my answer.

Upvotes:

Lightning arrestor is a spark-gap device, and can be installed anywhere. What is important, is that the wire is thick enough to withstand the lightning bolt and conduct the energy away from the building.

so, the loop of wire then, when put together with another loop reduces the ‘noise’ on a power line.

First Sentence:

In schematic diagrams this is the symbol for a fuse:

Can the fuse protect the electronic devices from lightning instead of a surge protector.

There is no harm in having the surge suppressor along with the fuse in the circuit. The fuse will not open up until the current melts the link. This will take time, and in the interim, that jolt will get transmitted into the power supplies.

The bolt then partially travels down the line to your home.

But… the neutral is now “floating” because of the 1 ohm resistance.

OK, this is Mohan Rajaratnam’s definition of a Surge suppressor.

These devices are installed between the “hot” and “neutral” and protective ground.

But during the surge, the fuse will not blow if it is a longer duration and lower value )10 to 50%).

So, it’s possible that these devices from Trip Lite have addition suppression devices, these ones seem to be sturdy.

What is lightning?

so, what happens?

This is the picture of an electronic coil of wire wound around a core of magnetic material.

There are two important concepts here.

At least they know the answer if they wanted it.

Fuses, on their own, then operate much slower than the MOV variable resistance, during the lightning strike.
