  2. Fuse (electrical) - Wikipedia

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

    The speed at which a fuse blows depends on how much current flows through it and the material of which the fuse is made. Manufacturers can provide a plot of current vs time, often plotted on logarithmic scales, to characterize the device and to allow comparison with the characteristics of protective devices upstream and downstream of the fuse.

  3. Fuse (explosives) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuse_(explosives)

    A flying fish fuse (bumblebee) is an unusual type of component for fireworks. It is made like Visco fuse, but contains a metallic spark composition or other effect instead of black powder. Flying fish can thus perform as a main effect instead of just an initiator.

  4. Visco fuse - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visco_fuse

    Visco is a 3/32 - 1/8 inch (2–3 mm)-diameter cord with a black powder core. There are three external layers to visco fuse. First, a layer of string is wound around the core, then a second, less tight, layer of string is wound in the opposite direction to prevent unraveling.

  5. Safety fuse - Wikipedia

    However "this fuse soon replaced the less reliable fuses which were made of straws or quills filled with black powder, thus greatly reducing the hazard of accidental explosions in mining or construction." [8] Word of the reliability of Bickford's safety fuse spread, and was soon in large demand across world markets. [9]

  6. Automotive fuse - Wikipedia

    Lucas type fuses are used in old British-made or assembled automobiles. The physical length of the Lucas ceramic type of fuse is either 1 inch or 1.25 inch, with conical ends. Lucas glass tube fuses have straight ends. Lucas type fuses usually use the same color-coding for the rated current.

  7. Detonating cord - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Detonating_cord

    It is a high-speed fuse which explodes, rather than burns, and is suitable for detonating high explosives. The detonation velocity is sufficient to use it for synchronizing multiple charges to detonate almost simultaneously even if the charges are placed at different distances from the point of initiation. It is used to reliably and ...

    The second of five storms that will slam the eastern half of the United States with snow and ice over a two week period is on the way – and this one has more snow than the first.

  9. Fusible plug - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fusible_plug

    It was found though that alloys aged poorly and could encourage the development of a matrix of oxides on the water surface of the plug, this matrix having a dangerously high melting point that made the plug inoperable. In 1888 the US Steamboat Inspection Service made a requirement that plugs were to be made of pure banca tin and replaced annually.
