  2. Thermal cutoff - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_cutoff

    (Weak spring sits on ceramic insulator. A thermal fuse is a cutoff which uses a one-time fusible link . Unlike a thermal switch which may automatically reset itself when the temperature drops, the thermal fuse is more like an electrical fuse : a single-use device that cannot be reset and must be replaced when it fails or is triggered.

  3. Insulation system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insulation_system

    In IEC standards, the insulation system is a classification based on the level of electrical shock protection given to a user. Functional insulation is that required to prevent short circuits within the equipment. Basic insulation is any material added to protect a user from accidental contact with energized parts.

  4. Space heater - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_heater

    In the United States, Underwriters Laboratories' UL 1278 [11] (for portable electric space heaters) and UL 1042 [12] standards (for portable and fixed baseboard electric heaters) certify heater safety. Although the General Services Administration had Specification W-H-193 [13] for

  5. Electric heating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_heating

    An electric heater is an electrical device that converts an electric current into heat. [1] The heating element inside every electric heater is an electrical resistor , and works on the principle of Joule heating : an electric current passing through a resistor will convert that electrical energy into heat energy.

  6. Insulator (electricity) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insulator_(electricity)

    The ridges are used to add surface area, which improves the electrical resistance of the insulator. Three-core copper wire power cable, each core with an individual colour-coded insulating sheath, all contained within an outer protective sheath. An electrical insulator is a material in which electric current does not flow freely. The atoms of ...

  7. Heating element - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heating_element

    A heating element is a device used for conversion of electric energy into heat, consisting of a heating resistor and accessories. [1] Heat is generated by the passage of electric current through a resistor through a process known as Joule heating. Heating elements are used in household appliances, industrial equipment, and scientific ...

  8. Fuse cutout - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuse_cutout

    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 and overloads. An overcurrent caused by a fault in the transformer or customer circuit will cause the fuse to ...

  9. Bushing (electrical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bushing_(electrical)

    This is specially true of bushings around high-voltage conductors. The electrical analysis usually focusses on the creation of the electric field around the conductor and how the shape of the bushing effects that field. The structural analysis considers the loads (wind, snow, earthquakes, rain, etc.) that the bushing is expected to survive.
