Learn MoreA fuse is an overcurrent protection device with a fusible link that melts and opens a circuit when an overload condition or short occurs. The fusible link melts because the fuse is made of a metal that has a lower melting point than the copper of the conductor. For example, if copper and lead wire are connected in series, and a variable …
Learn MoreThe energy within the magnetic field can be taken as a product of the average power and the elapsed time since switch closure. This is highlighted as the area under the power curve in Figure 2. The energy in the inductor can be found using the following equation: (w=frac{1}{2}Li^{2}) (2)
Learn MoreApplications of PTC thermistors for overcurrent protection Application: Overcurrent protection for on-board DC motors. When a motor is overloaded or rotation of a motor is stopped (locked), an overcurrent flows through the motor. This can result in thermal overstress to the coil. PTC thermistors can effectively protect motors from such …
Learn MoreThis current is sometimes called locked-rotor current, and motor starters and overcurrent devices must be rated to safely handle this value of current. Effects of short circuits.
