Lightning arresters are mounted on the crossarm opposite the fuse cutouts. Fuse cutouts with V-shaped bodies. In electrical distribution, a fuse cutout or cut-out fuse (often referred to as a cutout) is a combination of a fuse and a switch, used in primary overhead feeder lines and taps to protect distribution transformers from current surges ...
An assortment of thermal fuses. A thermal cutoff is an electrical safety device (either a thermal fuse or thermal switch) that interrupts electric current when heated to a specific temperature. These devices may be for one-time use (a thermal fuse), or may be reset manually or automatically (a thermal switch).
The transformer is always connected to the primary distribution lines through protective fuses and disconnect switches. For pole-mounted transformers, this is usually a 'fused cutout.' An electrical fault melts the fuse, and the device drops open to give a visual indication of trouble.
A time-delay fuse (also known as an anti-surge or slow-blow fuse) is designed to allow a current which is above the rated value of the fuse to flow for a short period of time without the fuse blowing. These types of fuse are used on equipment such as motors, which can draw larger than normal currents for up to several seconds while coming up to ...
Cutout (electric power distribution), a combination fuse and knife switch used on power poles; Cutout (espionage), a mechanism used to pass information; Cut-out (philately), an imprinted stamp cut from an item of postal stationery; Cut-out (recording industry), deeply discounted or remaindered recordings; Cut out of a scene to make a film ...

Most experts agree that self-injury is a cry for help and arises from a person trying and failing to process stress, said Dr. Jeremy Jamieson, professor and chair of psychology at the University ...
On a 3-phase circuit, a recloser is more beneficial than three separate fuse cutouts. For example, on a wye to delta conversion, when cutouts are used on the wye side and only 1 out of 3 of the cutout fuses open, some customers on the delta side have a low voltage condition, due to voltage transfer through the transformer windings. Low voltage ...
