3. Basement waterproofing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basement_waterproofing

   The main purpose of external weeping tile is preventing water from getting into a basement. However, these pipes can become clogged or damaged, which causes excess water to put pressure on internal walls and basement floors. Water build up inside window wells, after heavy rain or snow, can lead to leaks through basement window seams.

4. Fuse (electrical) - Wikipedia

External trip indicator — similar function to striker pin, but can be externally attached (using clips) to a compatible fuse. Some fuses allow a special purpose micro switch or relay unit to be fixed to the fuse body.

   It does this by stopping or greatly restricting the flow of hydraulic fluid through the fuse if the flow exceeds a threshold. 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.

   A residual-current device (RCD), residual-current circuit breaker (RCCB) or ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) [a] is an electrical safety device, more specifically a form of Earth-leakage circuit breaker, that interrupts an electrical circuit when the current passing through line and neutral conductors of a circuit is not equal (the term residual relating to the imbalance), therefore ...
