2. Fuse (electrical) - Wikipedia

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

   Normal fast-blow fuses are the most general purpose fuses. A time-delay fuse (also known as an anti-surge or slow-blow fuse) is designed to allow a current which is above the rated value of the fuse to flow for a short period of time without the fuse blowing. These types of fuse are used on equipment such as motors, which can draw larger than ...

3. Inrush current limiter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inrush_current_limiter

   An inrush current limiter is a component used to limit inrush current to avoid gradual damage to components and avoid blowing fuses or tripping circuit breakers.Negative temperature coefficient (NTC) thermistors and fixed resistors are often used to limit inrush current.

4. IEC 60269 - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEC_60269

   In electrical engineering, IEC 60269 is a set of technical standards for low-voltage power fuses. [1] The standard is in four volumes, which describe general requirements, fuses for industrial and commercial applications, fuses for residential applications, and fuses to protect semiconductor devices.

5. Automotive fuse - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automotive_fuse

   AG-series fuses are rated for 125 VAC or 250 VAC, while SFE fuses are rated only to 32 V AC or DC and so are not intended for circuits connected to 120 or 250 VAC. There are at least seven different sizes of fuses with a 1/4 inch diameter. The fuses listed are the most common for the size, which is always a fast-acting fuse:

6. Fuse cutout - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuse_cutout

   The fuse element, or "fuse link", is the replaceable portion of the assembly that melts and breaks the circuit when the electric current through it exceeds its rated current value. There are many types of fuse elements for many different uses such as a type T fuse also known as a "slow-blow fuse" being used for sidelines.

7. Breaking capacity - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breaking_capacity

   The prospective short-circuit current that can occur under short circuit conditions should not exceed the rated breaking capacity of the apparatus, otherwise breaking of the current cannot be guaranteed. The current breaking capacity corresponds to a certain voltage, so an electrical apparatus may have more than one breaking capacity current ...

9. Current limiting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Current_limiting

   A switched-mode power supply operating at the current limit with the output short-circuited does not have increased power dissipation in the power transistor(s), so foldback current limiting is an application feature only rather than one that also prevents a load fault from also destroying the power supply. The safety benefit of reducing the ...
