  2. Thermal cutoff - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_cutoff

    They are found in virtually every refrigerator, microwave, clothes dryer, space heater, and many more appliances found throughout the home. Another type of thermal switch is a PTC (Positive Temperature Coefficient) thermistor ; these thermistors have a "cutting off" temperature at which the resistance suddenly rises rapidly, limiting the ...

  3. Failure of electronic components - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Failure_of_electronic...

    Gallium arsenide monolithic microwave integrated circuits can have these failures: [11] Degradation of I DSS [12] by gate sinking and hydrogen poisoning. This failure is the most common and easiest to detect, and is affected by reduction of the active channel of the transistor in gate sinking and depletion of the donor density in the active ...

  4. Transient recovery voltage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transient_Recovery_Voltage

    Examples of TRV waveshapes. A transient recovery voltage (TRV) for high-voltage circuit breakers is the voltage that appears across the terminals after current interruption. It is a critical parameter for fault interruption by a high-voltage circuit breaker, its characteristics (amplitude, rate of rise) can lead either to a successful current interruption or to a failure (called reignition or ...

  5. Overheating (electricity) - Wikipedia

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

    Circuit-breakers can be placed at portions of a circuit in series to the path of current it will affect. If more current than expected goes through the circuit-breaker, the circuit breaker "opens" the circuit and stops all current. A fuse is a common type of circuit breaker that involves direct effect of Joule-overheating.

  6. Rework (electronics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rework_(electronics)

    Reflowing as a rework technique, similar to the manufacturing process of reflow soldering, involves dismantling the equipment to remove the faulty circuit board, pre-heating the whole board in an oven, heating the non-functioning component further to melt the solder, then cooling, following a carefully determined thermal profile, and ...

  7. Circuit breaker - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circuit_breaker

    A circuit breaker is an electrical safety device designed to protect an electrical circuit from damage caused by current in excess of that which the equipment can safely carry (overcurrent). Its basic function is to interrupt current flow to protect equipment and to prevent fire.

  8. Recloser - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recloser

    To prevent electric power distribution network damage, each station along the network is protected with circuit breakers or fuse cutouts which turn off power in the event of a short circuit. These protection solutions present a major problem when restoring power immediately following transient events, because repair crews need to manually reset ...

  9. Fault current limiter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fault_current_limiter

    A simple solution is to add electrical impedance to the circuit. This limits the rate at which current can increase, which limits the level the fault current can rise to before the breaker is opened. However, this also limits the ability of the circuit to satisfy rapidly changing demand, so the addition or removal of large loads causes unstable ...
