2. Fuse (electrical) - Wikipedia

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

   Ceramic fuses have the advantage of a higher breaking capacity, facilitating their use in circuits with higher current and voltage. Filling a fuse body with sand provides additional cooling of the arc and increases the breaking capacity of the fuse. Medium-voltage fuses may have liquid-filled envelopes to assist in the extinguishing of the arc.

   [citation needed] More appropriate lower-capacity fuses are now supplied with some plugs instead. BS 1362 specifies sand-filled ceramic-bodied cylindrical fuses, with dimensions of 1 in (25 mm) in length, with two metallic end caps of 1 ⁄ 4 in (6.4 mm) diameter and roughly 1 ⁄ 5 in (5.1 mm) long. The standard specifies breaking time versus ...

   A NEMA 5‐20 125 V 20 A or 6‐20 250 V 20 A plug with a missing earth pin would fit this socket, but a NEMA 2‐20 plug is slightly too big to fit. The upper slots connect to silver-coloured wiring screws on the upper side, and the lower slots connect to brass-coloured wiring screws on the lower side.

   There are several AS/NZS 3112 plug variants, including ones with larger or differently shaped pins used for devices drawing 15, 20, 25 and 32 A. These sockets accept plugs of equal or lower current rating, but not higher. For example, a 10 A plug will fit all sockets but a 20 A plug will fit only 20, 25 and 32 A sockets.

7. Thermal cutoff - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_cutoff

   An assortment of thermal fuses. A thermal cutoff is an electrical safety device (either a thermal fuse or thermal switch) that interrupts electric current when heated to a specific temperature. These devices may be for one-time use (a thermal fuse), or may be reset manually or automatically (a thermal switch).
