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?

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

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

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

A circuit breaker is similar, but is resettable.

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

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

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.

This device then solves the entire problem.

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

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

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

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

In schematic diagrams this is the symbol for a fuse:

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

What does it mean when your husband comments and likes other women on social media? He has private IG and TikTok accounts that I have no access to. He has saved videos and pictures of women on his phone.

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

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

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

Vinicius Jr. and Brazil Draw Blank in Ancelotti’s Debut - Managing Madrid

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

There are two important concepts here.

“ 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”

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

What is lightning?

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

so, what happens?

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

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

The other is “what does a “fuse” do?”

At least they know the answer if they wanted it.

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

what exactly is a ‘surge’ protector?

Isn't it ironic people always talk about how much women hate Donald Trump, when almost any of them would marry him if they could? What he said in the 2005 Billy Bush video, almost every woman would share the sentiment if it got them his lifestyle.

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

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

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

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.

He then describes Rainy Season and Lightning.

What does a fuse do?

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.

Edit 2024–10.

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

This one hit behind the barn.

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

2024–10–11 [Bobby Sanchez Bobby Sanchez ].

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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.

a photo is worth a thousand words.

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.

He then asserts :

(Dc diagram shown, AC is similar).

But it can get overloaded, and no longer works.

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.

[old diagram got deleted by accident]

I post the exact comment here.

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

He then describes the function of a fuse.

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

One

There are three different concepts here that are getting confused.

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.

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

Here is a simplified AC power diagram.

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

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