  2. Thermal cutoff - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_cutoff

    Thermal fuses are usually found in heat-producing electrical appliances such as coffeemakers and hair dryers. They function as safety devices to disconnect the current to the heating element in case of a malfunction (such as a defective thermostat) that would otherwise allow the temperature to rise to dangerous levels, possibly starting a fire.

  3. 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 ...

    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 ...
