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. Wig wag (washing machines) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wig_wag_(washing_machines)

   During a normal cycle, most Whirlpool-built wig-wag equipped washers will fill, start the motor, then engage the wash solenoid. Upon completion of the wash mode, the wash (agitate) solenoid will be turned off, which will allow the pump to drain the tub. After a minute or two, the timer will then engage the spin wig-wag which will cause the ...

4. Fuse (electrical) - Wikipedia

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

   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 normal currents for up to several seconds while coming up to ...

5. 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 .

6. IEC 60269 - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEC_60269

   IEC 60269-7 – Low-voltage fuses – Part 7: Supplementary requirements for fuse-links for the protection of batteries and battery systems; In IEC standards, the replaceable element is called a fuse link and the assembly of fuse link and fuse holder is called a fuse. North American standards call the replaceable element only the fuse.

7. Fuse (hydraulic) - Wikipedia

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

   The term "fuse" is used here in analogy with electrical fuses which perform a similar function. Hydraulic systems rely on high pressures (usually over 7000 kPa ) to work properly. If a hydraulic system loses fluid pressure, such as due to a burst hydraulic hose, it will become inoperative and components such as actuators may collapse.
