Fuses, Sockets and Circuit Breakers Overview
What Are Fuses? Fuses protect circuits from overcurrent conditions. A fuse is a resistor that has a low resistance value. In the event that the circuit to which it is attached receives too high a level of current, the fuse will burn out, breaking the circuit. These are low-cost components that are designed to be… Continue reading Fuses, Sockets and Circuit Breakers Overview
