In electronics and electrical engineering, a fuse is an electrical safety device that operates to provide overcurrent protection of an electrical circuit. Its essential component is a metal wire or strip that melts when too much current flows through it, thereby stopping or interrupting the current.
Robert L. Boylestad (born 1939) was professor emeritus of electrical and computer technology at Queensborough Community College, part of the City University of New York, [1] [2] and was an assistant dean in the Thayer School of Engineering of Dartmouth College.
The mathematical theory of electrical circuits. Circuit Total Limitation (CTL) A US National Electrical Code rule for the number of circuits in a panel board. clamp meter An ammeter that measures current with a split core that can be clamped on a wire. Clapp oscillator An electronic oscillator circuit that uses three capacitors and an inductor.
Power system protection is a branch of electrical power engineering that deals with the protection of electrical power systems from faults [citation needed] through the disconnection of faulted parts from the rest of the electrical network. The objective of a protection scheme is to keep the power system stable by isolating only the components ...
The Lucas 1/4" diameter glass tube fuse have a different length as compared to the standard US item. The Lucas 1/4" diameter glass tube fuse is 1 + 5 ⁄ 32 in (29 mm) long, while the US standard 1/4" glass tube fuse is 1 + 1 ⁄ 4 in (32 mm)] long. However, many Lucas fuse holders permit the longer US version to be installed easily.

Last January, a Court of Appeals panel ruled 2-1 that the lower court was correct in binding Schurr over for trial. In a one-page order , the Michigan Supreme Court declined to hear Schurr's appeal.
In an electric power system, a fault or fault current is any abnormal electric current. For example, a short circuit is a fault in which a live wire touches a neutral or ground wire. An open-circuit fault occurs if a circuit is interrupted by a failure of a current-carrying wire (phase or neutral) or a blown fuse or circuit breaker.
