  2. 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).

  3. High resistance connection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_resistance_connection

    Thermal monitoring of the connection and providing an HRC device close to the probable location where a fault may develop is key to providing early warning or isolation to reduce the risk of fire. Safety devices such as fuses and residual-current devices (RCDs) are unable to detect thermal rise and disconnect the electrical supply because they ...

  4. Fusible link - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fusible_link

    An electrical fusible link is a type of electrical fuse that is constructed simply with a short piece of wire typically four American wire gauge (AWG) sizes smaller than the wire that is being protected. For example, an AWG 16 fusible link might be used to protect AWG 12 wiring.

  5. Residual-current device - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Residual-current_device

    A residual-current device (RCD), residual-current circuit breaker (RCCB) or ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) [a] is an electrical safety device that interrupts an electrical circuit when the current passing through a conductor is not equal and opposite in both directions, therefore indicating leakage current to ground or current flowing to another powered conductor.

  6. Fusible plug - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fusible_plug

    The very large thermal loads imposed by abnormal landing and braking conditions (such as a high-speed rejected takeoff, where an aircraft heavy with fuel must brake hard from a very high speed to a stop in a relatively short distance) can cause the already high pressure in the tyres to rise to the point that the tyre might burst, so fusible ...

  7. Resettable fuse - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resettable_fuse

    A resettable fuse or polymeric positive temperature coefficient device (PPTC) is a passive electronic component used to protect against overcurrent faults in electronic circuits. The device is also known as a multifuse or polyfuse or polyswitch .
