1.A short circuit (sometimes abbreviated to short or s/c) allows a charge to flow along a different path from the one intended.In electrical devices, unintentional short circuits are usually caused when a wire's insulation breaks down, or when another conducting material is introduced, allowing charge to flow along a different path than the one intended.
2. Fuse is a type of overcurrent protection device. Its essential component is a metal wire or strip that melts when too much current flows.When the fuse element blows, the indicating pin extends to activate the micro switch or relay which in turn triggers an event.
3.Circuit breakers operates once and then has to be replaced, a circuit breaker can be reset (either manually or automatically) to resume normal operation.

1.A short circuit (sometimes abbreviated to short or s/c) allows a charge to flow along a different path from the one intended. The electrical opposite of a short circuit is an open circuit, which is infinite resistance between two nodes. It is common to misuse "short circuit" to describe any electrical malfunction, regardless of the actual problem.
A short circuit is an accidental low-resistance connection between two nodes of an electrical circuit that are meant to be at different voltages. This results in an excessive electric current limited only by the Thevenin equivalent resistance of the rest of the network and potentially causes circuit damage, overheating, fire or explosion. Although usually the result of a fault, there are cases where short circuits are caused intentionally, for example, for the purpose of voltage-sensing crowbar circuit protectors .(unfinished)

1.A short circuit is simply a low resistance connection between the two conductors supplying electrical power to any circuit. This results in excessive current flow in the power source through the 'short,' and may even cause the power source to be destroyed. If a fuse is in the supply circuit, it will do its job and blow out, opening the circuit and stopping the current flow.

Unintentional short circuits are usually caused when a wire's insulation breaks down, or when another conducting material is introduced, allowing charge to flow along a different path than the one intended.
2. In electronics and electrical engineering a fuse, short for 'fusible link', is a type of overcurrent protection device. Its essential component is a metal wire or strip that melts when too much current flows. When the metal strip melts, it opens the circuit of which it's a part, and so protects the circuit from excessive current.

6. .In an electrical overload, it leads to excessive heating of the wires and a possibility of fire.
In a short circuit, an accidental low-resistance connection between two nodes of an electrical circuit that are meant to be at different voltages. This results in an excessive electric current limited only by the Thevenin equivalent resistance of the rest of the network and potentially causes circuit damage, overheating, fire or explosion. Although usually the result of a fault, there are cases where short circuits are caused intentionally, for example, for the purpose of voltage-sensing crowbar circuit protectors.
7. A short circuit-occurs when conductors of opposite polarity are accidentally bridged by a conductive object or bridged to grounded metal. Metal screwdrivers, wrenches, fish tapes, test instruments, etc. have all been found to have made inadvertent contact while persons were working on live equipment. An arcing fault may be established that is limited only by the total impedance of the circuit. The arcing will continue until circuit breaker, fuse, or equipment ground fault protection device on the line side of the fault opens the circuit. Even if the short circuit protective device opens the circuit without any intentional delay, portions of the conductors and other metallic materials in the path of the arc may explode violently, showering the area with hot molten metal that can cause severe burns or death. The flash associated with the arc can also cause permanent eye damage. Finally, a short circuit may expel shrapnel toward the workman, penetrating clothing or the body.

The electrical opposite of a short circuit is an open circuit, which is infinite resistance between two nodes. It is common to misuse "short circuit" to describe any electrical malfunction, regardless of the actual problem.
--an abnormal, usually unintentional condition of relatively low resistance between two points of different potential in a circuit, usually resulting in a flow of excess current.
This results in an excessive electric current limited only by the Thevenin equivalent resistance of the rest of the network and potentially causes circuit damage, overheating, fire or explosion. Although usually the result of a fault, there are cases where short circuits are caused intentionally, for example, for the purpose of voltage-sensing crowbar circuit protectors.
2.A fuse is a tube, cord, or the like, filled or saturated with combustible matter, for igniting an explosive.A protective device, used in an electric circuit, containing a conductor that melts under heat produced by an excess current, thereby opening the circuit.
---If a device like your car radio suddenly draws enough current to blow the fuse, the radio is probably already toast. The fuse is there to protect the wire, which would be much harder to replace than the radio.
--The circuit breaker's job is to cut off the circuit whenever the current jumps above a safe level. In the following sections, we'll find out how it does this.
The hot wire in the circuit connects to the two ends of the switch. When the switch is flipped to the on position, electricity can flow from the bottom terminal, through the electromagnet, up to the moving contact, across to the stationary contact and out to the upper terminal.
The electricity magnetizes the electromagnet (See How Electromagnets Work to find out why). Increasing current boosts the electromagnet's magnetic force, and decreasing current lowers the magnetism. When the current jumps to unsafe levels, the electromagnet is strong enough to pull down a metal lever connected to the switch linkage. The entire linkage shifts, tilting the moving contact away from the stationary contact to break the circuit. The electricity shuts off.

When you blow a fuse, the wire usually snaps in two, and the power running through that circuit is immediately cut off. The excess heat buildup occurs whenever appliances draw more amperage than the circuit can handle. If the fuse is rated for 25 amps, for example, and a user plugs in a 75 amp clothes dryer, the excessive amperage will blow the fuse.

A correctly designed electrical system incorporates suitable overload protection devices to prevent damage should such a situation occur.

6.When too much current flows through a wire, it may overheat and be damaged, or even start a fire. Wiring regulations give the maximum rating of a fuse for protection of a particular circuit. Local authorities will incorporate national wiring regulations as part of law. Fuses are selected to allow passage of normal currents, but to quickly interrupt a short circuit or overload condition.

Its essential component is a metal wire or strip that melts when too much current flows. When the metal strip melts, it opens the circuit of which it's a part, and so protects the circuit from excessive when the fuse element blows, the indicating pin extends to activate the micro switch or relay which in turn triggers an event.
3.) The circuit breaker is an absolutely essential device in the modern world, and one of the most important safety mechanisms in your home. Whenever electrical wiring in a building has too much current flowing through it, these simple machines cut the power until somebody can fix the problem. Without circuit breakers (or the alternative, fuses), household electricity would be impractical because of the potential for fires and other mayhem resulting from simple wiring problems and equipment failures. The circuit breaker's job is to cut off the circuit whenever the current jumps above a safe level.
4.) An electrical overload is a situation where the wiring to or within a machine or system is subjected to a greater electric current load than it was designed to carry, leading to excessive heating of the wires and a possibility of fire. This excessive current load can be a result of electrical insulation failure (a short circuit) or human error.In an electrical overload, it leads to excessive heating of the wires and a possibility of fire.
6.) In a short circuit, an accidental low-resistance connection between two nodes of an electrical circuit that are meant to be at different voltages. This result in an excessive electric current limited only by the Thevenin equivalent resistance of the rest of the network and potentially causes circuit damage, overheating, fire or explosion. Although usually the result of a fault, there are cases where short circuits are caused intentionally, for example, for the purpose of voltage-sensing crowbar circuit protectors.
7.) A short circuit-occurs when conductors of opposite polarity are accidentally bridged by a conductive object or bridged to grounded metal. Metal screwdrivers, wrenches, fish tapes, test instruments, etc. has all been found to have made inadvertent contact while persons were working on live equipment. An arcing fault may be established that is limited only by the total impedance of the circuit. The arcing will continue until circuit breaker, fuse, or equipment ground fault protection device on the line side of the fault opens the circuit. Even if the short circuit protective device opens the circuit without any intentional delay, portions of the conductors and other metallic materials in the path of the arc may explode violently, showering the area with hot molten metal that can cause severe burns or death. The flash associated with the arc can also cause permanent eye damage. Finally, a short circuit may expel shrapnel toward the workman, penetrating clothing or the body.

1.) A short circuit that allows a charge to flow along a different path from the one intended. The electrical opposite of a short circuit is an open circuit, which is infinite resistance between two nodes. It is common to misuse "short circuit" to describe any electrical malfunction, regardless of the actual problem.
Short-circuit protection is a separate discipline dedicated to the study, analysis, application, and design of protective apparatus that are intended to minimize the effect of unintentional short circuits in power supply systems. For these analyses the short circuit is an important limiting (worst) case, and is used to compute the coordination of fuses, circuit reclosers, circuit breakers, and other devices designed to recognize and isolate short circuits. The short circuit is also an important parameter in the specification of these protective devices, which must have adequate capability for interrupting the high short-circuit current.In electrical devices, unintentional short circuits are usually caused when a wire's insulation breaks down, or when another conducting material is introduced, allowing charge to flow along a different path than the one intended.
2.)A fuse is generally inserted into an electrical circuit for 1 of 2 reasons, either to protect the power source which includes the wire that connects the power supply to the electrical device, or to protect the electronic equipment. The electronic equipment manufacturers specify a fuse rated to open the electrical circuit before damage can be done to the device or open the circuit if the electronic device fails in some way (electronic devices may pull excessive current when they fail). If a fuse larger than the specified fuse is used, a small mistake when installing the equipment may cause catastrophic failure of the equipment. WHEN, not if, WHEN you're thinking of replacing a blown fuse with a higher rated fuse ask yourself if you know more than the engineer who designed the equipment. Don't get in a hurry when installing electronic equipment. Take the time to go get the right fuse. 50 cents for a fuse is better than $50 labor plus the cost of the replacement parts for a repair job.
3.)A circuit breaker's function is, like a fuse, to break a circuit path when a predetermined amount of current is passed. In my opinion, circuit breakers should never be used to protect electronic devices such as radios, amplifiers or crossovers. Most common circuit breakers (thermal snap action) take far too long to open the circuit path. This does not mean that they are not useful. When they are properly selected they do a good job of protecting wiring and devices such as electric motors. Some breakers are self resetting. Others require manual resetting. I strongly recommend using a manual reset type. This will allow you to watch for any problems when the circuit path is restored.
4.) An electrical overload is a situation where the wiring to or within a machine or system is subjected to a greater electric current load than it was designed to carry, leading to excessive heating of the wires and a possibility of fire. This excessive current load can be a result of electrical insulation failure ( a short circuit) or human error. A correctly designed electrical system incorporates suitable overload protection devices to prevent damage should such a situation occur. Fuses and circuit breakers are most commonly employed for this purpose.
5.)when there is an overload of the circuit may lead to a PROBLEM. We must not insert a plug into a socket and there's enough power to run an appliance or to much appliances . Most homeowners take electricity for granted because the power is available, convenient and safe. But should the light or the appliance fail, then the frustrated homeowner wonders what went wrong. Sometimes the failure can be traced to the power company when, for example, a power cable goes down or a generator malfunctions. More often, however, the problem is within the home.
6.)the overload is the excessive heating. when there to many electrical devices it may blow-up the fuse because for the reason to much electricity has been used up and normally just only use only 2 or 3 appliances to prevent the problem that will cause the fuse when it will blow.The dangers of short circuit are it can cause fires which can damage things and will even caused lives.
7.)Short circuits and overloads put different demands on circuit breakers. It is imperative that engineers know how to protect their design against both dangers. Circuit breakers are used in a variety of ways. They are mounted in panelboards to protect branch circuit wiring, and they are built into equipment to protect it. With this range of applications, it's not surprising that a circuit breaker must provide both short circuits and overload protection.Damage from short circuits can be reduced or prevented by employing fuses, circuit breakers, or other overload protection, which disconnect the power in reaction to excessive current. Overload protection must be chosen according to the maximum prospective short circuit current in a circuit. For example, large home appliances (such as clothes dryers) typically draw 10 to 20 amperes, so it is common for them to be protected by 20 - 30 ampere circuit breakers, whereas lighting circuits typically draw less than 10 amperes and are protected by 10 - 15 ampere breakers. Wire sizes are specified in building and electrical codes, and must be carefully chosen for their specific application to ensure safe operation in conjunction with the overload protection.

Fuses (and other overcurrent devices) are an essential part of a power distribution system to prevent fire or damage. When too much current flows through a wire, it may overheat and be damaged or even start a fire.
When you blow a fuse, the wire usually snaps in two, and the power running through that circuit is immediately cut off.

5. Why will too many electrical devices operating at one time often blow a fuse?
Too many electrical devices operating at one time often blow a fuse because too much current flow can lead to excessive heating of the wire. Fuses have the essential component which is a metal wire or strip that melts when too much current flows. For this reason, a fuse will blow out if too much current flows through it.
6. What are the dangers of short circuit and overload?
Short circuit and overload poses danger to the lives of the people. They may reach to the extent of excessive fire which could damage properties and life. It can destroy appliances in the house and will ruin properties because of the fire it may cause and it can affect our daily living and also our health.
overload ,on the other hand, may lead to excessive heating of the wires and may result to the possibility of fire.

1. A SHORT CIRCUIT (sometimes abbreviated to short or s/c) allows a charge to flow along a different path from the one intended. The electrical opposite of a short circuit is an open circuit, which is infinite resistance between two nodes. It is common to misuse "short circuit" to describe any electrical malfunction, regardless of the actual problem.

This excessive current load can be a result of electrical insulation failure ( a short circuit) or human error.
5. A circuit may include one or more devices that have a varying load or resistance, which in turn creates variances in the amount of current flowing through the circuit. If too many devices are added to the circuit and draw too much current at one time (e.g., simultaneously operating headlamps, stereo, air conditioning, windshield wipers, and electric windows in a car), a fuse may blow to protect the devices from an overload.
6. Dangers one can get from short circuit and overloading are:
1. Fatal electric shocks
2. Electrical fire
3. Overheating (too hot wires),
4. Overload (too much current)
5. Damage of appliances.

1.What is short circuit? What is the common cause of unintentional short circuits in electrical devices?
-A short circuit (sometimes abbreviated to short or s/c) allows a charge to flow along a different path from the one intended. The electrical opposite of a short circuit is an open circuit, which is infinite resistance between two nodes. It is common to misuse "short circuit" to describe any electrical malfunction; regardless of the actual problem. It is an accidental low-resistance connection between two nodes of an electrical circuit that are meant to be at different voltages.
In electrical devices, unintentional short circuits are usually caused when a wire's insulation breaks down, or when another conducting material is introduced, allowing charge to flow along a different path than the one intended.
2.What is a fuse? What happens when you blow a fuse?
-A fuse, short for 'fusible link', is a type of overcurrent protection device. Its essential component is a metal wire or strip that melts when too much current flows. When the metal strip melts, it opens the circuit of which it's a part, and so protects the circuit from excessive current.
Fuses (and other overcurrent devices) are an essential part of a power distribution system to prevent fire or damage. When too much current flows through a wire, it may overheat and be damaged or even start a fire.
When you blow a fuse, the wire usually snaps in two, and the power running through that circuit is immediately cut off.
3.How do Circuit breakers Work?
-The circuit breaker is an absolutely essential device in the modern world, and one of the most important safety mechanisms in your home. Whenever electrical wiring in a building has too much current flowing through it, these simple machines cut the power until somebody can fix the problem. Without circuit breakers (or the alternative, fuses), household electricity would be impractical because of the potential for fires and other mayhem resulting from simple wiring problems and equipment failures.
4.When is there an overload in a circuit?
-An electrical overload is a situation where the wiring to or within a machine or system is subjected to a greater electric current load than it was designed to carry, leading to excessive heating of the wires and a possibility of fire. This excessive current load can be a result of electrical insulation failure ( a short circuit) or human error. A correctly designed electrical system incorporates suitable overload protection devices to prevent damage should such a situation occur. Fuses and circuit breakers are most commonly employed for this purpose.
5. Why will too many electrical devices operating at one time often blow a fuse?
Too many electrical devices operating at one time often blow a fuse because too much current flow can lead to excessive heating of the wire. Fuses have the essential component which is a metal wire or strip that melts when too much current flows. For this reason, a fuse will blow out if too much current flows through it.
6. What are the dangers of short circuit and overload?
Short circuit and overload poses danger to the lives of the people. They may reach to the extent of excessive fire which could damage properties and life. It can destroy appliances in the house and will ruin properties because of the fire it may cause and it can affect our daily living and also our health.

6. Short circuit and overloading can be very hazardous to human. Fire and explosion are the most noted dangers of short circuit and overloading. These are caused by several factors but most often it's because of the excessive current flow which releases extreme heat especially if there's no device used to aid or prevent it. Fuses and circuit breakers are most commonly employed for this purpose.
short circuit is usually cuased by the breaking of the insulator of wires. this can be prevented by checking the wires before using them and placing them to hig or safety places where they ont be stepped on or torn. cleaning them after using can also prevent the wires to be bitten by rats and other pests.
overloading is a situation where the wiring within a machine or system is subjected to a greater electric current load than it was designed to carry, leading to excessive heating of the wires and a possibility of fire.circuit bearker and fuse are just some of these devices desinged to prevent overloading. The circuit breaker is an absolutely essential device in the modern world.

A short circuit (sometimes abbreviated to short or s/c) in an electrical circuit allows a current along a different path from the one intended. The electrical opposite of a short circuit is an "open circuit", which is an infinite resistance between two nodes. It is common to misuse "short circuit" to describe any electrical malfunction, regardless of the actual problem. A short circuit is an abnormal low-resistance connection between two nodes of an electrical circuit that are meant to be at different voltages. This results in an excessive electric current (overcurrent) limited only by the Thevenin equivalent resistance of the rest of the network and potentially causes circuit damage, overheating, fire or explosion. Although usually the result of a fault, there are cases where short circuits are caused intentionally, for example, for the purpose of voltage-sensing crowbar circuit protectors.

2. What is a fuse? What happens when you blow a fuse?
In electronics and electrical engineering a fuse (short for fusible link) is a type of overcurrent protection device. Its essential component is a metal wire or strip that melts when too much current flows, which breaks the circuit in which it is connected, thus protecting the circuit's other components from damage due to excessive current. The problem with fuses is they only work once. Every time you blow a fuse, you have to replace it with a new one. A circuit breaker does the same thing as a fuse -- it opens a circuit as soon as current climbs to unsafe levels -- but you can use it over and over again.

3. How do Circuit breakers Work?
The circuit breaker is an absolutely essential device in the modern world, and one of the most important safety mechanisms in your home. Whenever electrical wiring in a building has too much current flowing through it, these simple machines cut the power until somebody can fix the problem. Without circuit breakers (or the alternative, fuses), household electricity would be impractical because of the potential for fires and other mayhem resulting from simple wiring problems and equipment failures. The circuit breaker's job is to cut off the circuit whenever the current jumps above a safe level.

4. When is there an overload in a circuit?
In electricity supply, overcurrent or excess current is a situation where a larger than intended electric current exists through a conductor, leading to excessive generation of heat and the risk of damaging infrastructure and equipment and causing fires. Possible causes for overcurrent include short circuits, excessive load, and incorrect design. Fuses, circuit breakers, temperature sensors and current limiters are commonly used protection mechanisms to control the risks of overcurrent.

5. Why will too many electrical devices operating at one time often blow a fuse?
Too much electrical devices operating at once means greater current flow, and when there’s too much current flowing, it may lead to an overload, which sometimes blow up the fuse. Several devices operating at the same time will most likely blow a fuse because an enormous current is being generated which triggers an overcurrent protection device or the fuse. This excessive current load can result to an electrical insulation failure (a short circuit) or human error which includes fires and explosion.

6. What are the dangers of short circuit and overload?
Short circuit and overloading can be very hazardous to human. Fire and explosion are the most noted dangers of short circuit and overloading. These are caused by several factors but most often it's because of the excessive current flow which releases extreme heat especially if there's no device used to aid or prevent it. Fuses and circuit breakers are most commonly employed for this purpose.

The electrical opposite of a short circuit is an open circuit, which is infinite resistance between two nodes. It is common to misuse "short circuit" to describe any electrical malfunction, regardless of the actual problem.
A short circuit is an accidental low-resistance connection between two nodes of an electrical circuit that are meant to be at different voltages.

2.A FUSE short for 'fusible link', is a type of overcurrent protection device. Its essential component is a metal wire or strip that melts when too much current flows. When the metal strip melts, it opens the circuit of which it's a part, and so protects the circuit from excessive current.When the fuse element blows, the indicating pin extends to activate the micro switch or relay which in turn triggers an event.
3.How do Circuit breakers Work?
The circuit breaker is a simple solution to a potentially deadly problem. See more circuit breaker pictures.The circuit breaker is an absolutely essential device in the modern world, and one of the most important safety mechanisms in your home.

4.When is there an overload in a circuit?
An electrical overload is a situation where the wiring to or within a machine or system is subjected to a greater electric current load than it was designed to carry, leading to excessive heating of the wires and a possibility of fire. This excessive current load can be a result of electrical insulation failure ( a short circuit) or human error. A correctly designed electrical system incorporates suitable overload protection devices to prevent damage should such a situation occur.

1. What is short circuit? What is the common cause of unintentional short circuits in electrical devices?
◘A short circuit (sometimes abbreviated to short or s/c) in an electrical circuit allows a current along a different path from the one intended. The electrical opposite of a short circuit is an "open circuit", which is an infinite resistance between two nodes. It is common to misuse "short circuit" to describe any electrical malfunction, regardless of the actual problem.In other words, it is an abnormal low-resistance connection between two nodes of an electrical circuit that are meant to be at different voltages.

1. A short circuit is an abnormal condition (including an arc) of relatively low impedance, whether made accidentally or intentionally, between two points of different potential in an electric network or system.Common usage of the term implies an undesirable condition arising from failure of electrical insulation, from natural causes (lightning, wind, and so forth), or from human causes (accidents, intrusion, and so forth). From an analytical viewpoint, however, short circuits represent a severe condition that the circuit designer must consider in designing an electric system that must withstand all possible operating conditions.
2. A fuse is an expendable protective device that eliminates overload on an electric circuit. The fuse is connected in series with the circuit being protected. The components of a typical low-voltage high-power fuse are a fuse element or wire, an insulating material support and housing, two metal end fittings, and a filler.When you blow a fuse, the wire usually snaps in two, and the power running through that circuit is immediately cut off. The excess heat buildup occurs whenever appliances draw more amperage than the circuit can handle.
3. A circuit breaker is a device to open or close an electric power circuit either during normal power system operation or during abnormal conditions. A circuit breaker serves in the course of normal system operation to energize or deenergize loads. During abnormal conditions, when excessive current develops, a circuit breaker opens to protect equipment and surroundings from possible damage due to excess current. These abnormal currents are usually the result of short circuits created by lightning, accidents, deterioration of equipment, or sustained overloads.
4. An electrical overload is a situation where the wiring to or within a machine or system is subjected to a greater electric current load than it was designed to carry, leading to excessive heating of the wires and a possibility of fire. This excessive current load can be a result of electrical insulation failure (a short circuit) or human error.In an electrical overload, it leads to excessive heating of the wires and a possibility of fire.
5. In an electrical overload, it leads to excessive heating of the wires and a possibility of fire.
In a short circuit, an accidental low-resistance connection between two nodes of an electrical circuit that are meant to be at different voltages. This results in an excessive electric current limited only by the Thevenin equivalent resistance of the rest of the network and potentially causes circuit damage, overheating, fire or explosion. Although usually the result of a fault, there are cases where short circuits are caused intentionally, for example, for the purpose of voltage-sensing crowbar circuit protectors.
6. A short circuit-occurs when conductors of opposite polarity are accidentally bridged by a conductive object or bridged to grounded metal. Metal screwdrivers, wrenches, fish tapes, test instruments, etc. have all been found to have made inadvertent contact while persons were working on live equipment. An arcing fault may be established that is limited only by the total impedance of the circuit. The arcing will continue until circuit breaker, fuse, or equipment ground fault protection device on the line side of the fault opens the circuit. Even if the short circuit protective device opens the circuit without any intentional delay, portions of the conductors and other metallic materials in the path of the arc may explode violently, showering the area with hot molten metal that can cause severe burns or death. The flash associated with the arc can also cause permanent eye damage. Finally, a short circuit may expel shrapnel toward the workman, penetrating clothing or the body.
Overload-leading to excessive heating of the wires and a possibility of fire. This excessive current load can be a result of electrical insulation failure ( a short circuit) or human error.

..hello ma'am doOd day!!
.What is short circuit? What is the common cause of unintentional short circuits in electrical devices?
-A short circuit (sometimes abbreviated to short or s/c) allows a charge to flow along a different path from the one intended. A short circuit is an accidental low-resistance connection between two nodes of an electrical circuit that are meant to be at different voltages.
In electrical devices, unintentional short circuits are usually caused when a wire's insulation breaks down, or when another conducting material is introduced, allowing charge to flow along a different path than the one intended.
.What is a fuse? What happens when you blow a fuse?
-Fuse is a type of over current protection device.
Its essential component is a metal wire or strip that melts when too much current flows.When the fuse element blows, the indicating pin extends to activate the micro switch or relay which in turn triggers an event.
.How do Circuit breakers Work?
-An electrical overload is a situation where the wiring to or within a machine or system is subjected to a greater electric current load than it was designed to carry, leading to excessive heating of the wires and a possibility of fire.
This excessive current load can be a result of electrical insulation failure ( a short circuit) or human error. A correctly designed electrical system incorporates suitable overload protection devices to prevent damage should such a situation occur. Fuses and circuit breakers are most commonly employed for this purpose.
.When is there an overload in a circuit?

A correctly designed electrical system incorporates suitable overload protection devices to prevent damage should such a situation occur. Fuses and circuit breakers are most commonly employed for this purpose.
.Why will too many electrical devices operating at one time often blow a fuse?
-This excessive current load can be a result of electrical insulation failure ( a short circuit) or human error. A correctly designed electrical system incorporates suitable overload protection devices to prevent damage should such a situation occur. Fuses and circuit breakers are most commonly employed for this purpose.
.What are the dangers of short circuit and overload?
-the overload is the excessive heating. when there to many electrical devices it may blow-up the fuse because for the reason to much electricity has been used up and normally just only use only 2 or 3 appliances to prevent the problem that will cause the fuse when it will blow.The dangers of short circuit are it can cause fires which can damage things and will even caused lives.

1. SHORT CIRCUIT
A low-resistance-connection established by accident or intention between two points in an electric circuit.
Short circuit happens when a hot wire touches a neutral or ground wire, the extra current flows through the circuit causes the breaker to trip or fuse to blow.
2. FUSE
-A type of overcurrent protection device.
Is an essential part of a power distribution system to prevent fire or damage.
Current flowing through a wire heats the wire. The length of a wire affects its resistance, which determines how much current flows in the wire and how hot the wire gets.
3. CIRCUIT BREAKERS
An incredibly simple solution to a potentially deadly problem.
CIRCUIT BREAKERS WORK
A metal wire or strip melts when too much current flows, which breaks the circuit in which it is connected.
4. OVERLOAD IN A CIRCUIT
In electricity supply, overcurrent or excess current is a situation where a larger than intended electric current exists through a conductor - leading to excessive generation of heat and the risk of damaging infrastructure and equipment and causing fires. Possible causes for overcurrent include short circuits, excessive load and incorrect design. Fuses, circuit breakers, temperature sensors and current limiters are commonly used protection mechanisms to control the risks of overcurrent.
5. ELECTRICAL DEVICES OPERATING AT ONE TIME OF TEN BLOW A FUSE
This happens when there are many consumers of devices. This is because of overcurrent or excess current where a larger than intended electric current exists through a conductor leading to excessive generation of heat and the risk of damaging infrastructure and equipment and causing fires.
6. DANGERS OF SHORT CIRCUIT AND
OVERLOAD
People may die because of short circuit and overload. We must be careful when operating a device. Carelessness can lead to fire, electrocution and even death. Observe extra care in using appliances. Large amount of current passing through a person can kill.

Fuses (and other overcurrent devices) are an essential part of a power distribution system to prevent fire or damage. When too much current flows through a wire, it may overheat and be damaged, or even start a fire. Wiring regulations give the maximum rating of a fuse for protection of a particular circuit.

Unintentional short circuits are usually caused when a wire's insulation breaks down, or when another conducting material is introduced.
2. What is a fuse? What happens when you blow a fuse?
A fuse is a type of overcurrent protection device. The most essential component of a fuse is a metal wire or strip that melts when too much current flows. When the metal strip melts, it opens the circuit of which it's a part, and so protects the circuit from excessive current.
When we blow a fuse, the indicating pin extends to activate the micro switch or relay which in turn triggers an event.

Overload in a circuit occurs when the wiring to or within a machine or system is subjected to a greater electric current load than it was designed to carry, leading to excessive heating of the wires and a possibility of fire.
5.Why will too many electrical devices operating at one time often blow a fuse?
Several devices operating at the same time will most likely blow a fuse because an enormous current is being generated which triggers an overcurrent protection device or the fuse. This excessive current load can result to an electrical insulation failure (a short circuit) or human error which includes fires and explosion.
6.What are the dangers of short circuit and overload?
Short circuit and overloading can be very hazardous to human. Fire and explosion are the most noted dangers of short circuit and overloading. These are caused by several factors but most often it's because of the excessive current flow which releases extreme heat especially if there's no device used to aid or prevent it. Fuses and circuit breakers are most commonly employed for this purpose.

short circuit abnormal connection of low resistance between two points of a circuit that usually causes a high, potentially damaging current to flow. To protect against damage, devices such as a fuse or a circuit breaker are used. They sense the excess current and break the circuit so that no current can flow. They must be replaced or reset manually once the cause of the short circuit is removed.
Home electrical circuits may have a number of problems:
Faulty wiring within the house;
Too many lamps or appliances on one circuit;
Defective wall switches or receptacles;
Defective cords or plugs;
Defective circuits within appliances.
Short circuits happen when a hot wire touches a neutral or ground wire; the extra current flowing through the circuit causes the breaker to trip or fuse to blow.

1.A short circuit is to connect the positive and negative terminals of a battery together with a low-resistance conductor, like a wire. With low resistance in the connection, a high current exists, causing the cell to deliver a large amount of energy in a short time.
In electrical devices, unintentional short circuits are usually caused when a wire's insulation breaks down, or when another conducting material is introduced, allowing charge to flow along a different path than the one intended.
2.fuses-is a safety switching device made of fine wires which easily melts.(and other overcurrent devices) are an essential part of a power distribution system to prevent fire or damage. When too much current flows through a wire, it may overheat and be damaged, or even start a fire. Wiring regulations give the maximum rating of a fuse for protection of a particular circuit. Local authorities will incorporate national wiring regulations as part of law. Fuses are selected to allow passage of normal currents, but to quickly interrupt a short circuit or overload condition.
3.circuit breakers look like switches.when an "overload" or "short" takes place,the circuit breaker automatically shutts off power to tjhe circuit.to reconnect,the circuit breaker must be reset.a circuit breaker can also be used manually to disconnect a circuit from incoming power when doing electrical repair.
4.when too many lamps an electrical appliances connected in one circuit,it will cause the resistance decrease.the total current then increases and may exceed the limit that that the wires and safely carry.
5.this excessive current load can be a result of electrical insulation failure.a correctly designed electical system incorporates suitable overload protection devices to prevent damage.
6.it can cause fires that can damage things and lives.it will destrory our appliances because of the fire it caused.we should know how to maintain our appliances at constant state and better care.also,we should try our best to be responsible not only to the things surrounds us but most especially to our lives.

1.A short circuit is an abnormal low-resistance connection between two nodes of an electrical circuit that are meant to be at different voltages. This results in an excessive electric current (overcurrent) limited only by the Thevenin equivalent resistance of the rest of the network and potentially causes circuit damage, overheating, fire or explosion. Although usually the result of a fault, there are cases where short circuits are caused intentionally, for example, for the purpose of voltage-sensing crowbar circuit protectors.
In circuit analysis, the term short circuit is used by analogy to designate a zero-impedance connection between two nodes. This forces the two nodes to be at the same voltage. In an ideal short circuit, this means there is no resistance and no voltage drop across the short. In simple circuit analysis, wires are considered to be shorts. In real circuits, the result is a connection of nearly zero impedance, and almost no resistance. In such a case, the current drawn is limited by the rest of the circuit.
2.☻ A FUSE (short for fusible link) is a type of overcurrent
protection device. Its essential component is a metal wire
or strip that melts when too much current flows, which breaks
the circuit in which it is connected, thus protecting the
circuit's other components from damage due to excessive current.

determines how muchcurrent flows in the wire and
how hot the wire gets.
3.☻The circuit breaker is an absolutely essential device in the modern world, and one of the most important safety mechanisms in your home. Whenever electrical wiring in a building has too much current flowing through it, these simple machines cut the power until somebody can fix the problem. Without circuit breakers (or the alternative, fuses), household electricity would be impractical because of the potential for fires and other mayhem resulting from simple wiring problems and equipment failures.
4.☻ Overload occurs when a larger than intended electric current exists through a conductor, leading to excessive generation of heat and the risk of damaging infrastructure and equipment and causing fires.
5. This excessive current load can be a result of electrical insulation failure ( a short circuit) or human error. A correctly designed electrical system incorporates suitable overload protection devices to prevent damage should such a situation occur. Fuses and circuit breakers are most commonly employed for this purpose.
6.☻ In an electrical overload, it leads to excessive heating of the wires and a possibility of fire.In a short circuit, an accidental low-resistance connection between two nodes of an electrical circuit that are meant to be at different voltages. This results in an excessive electric current limited only by the Thevenin equivalent resistance of the rest of the network and potentially causes circuit damage, overheating, fire or explosion. Although usually the result of a fault, there are cases where short circuits are caused intentionally, for example, for the purpose of voltage-sensing crowbar circuit protectors.
☻ The dangers of short circuit are it can cause fires which can damage things and will even caused lives. It can cause so much trouble to the family and community. It will destroy appliances in the house and will ruin properties because of the fire it caused.We should really try our best to avoid short circuit and overload by maintaining our appliances at constant state and provide it a better care so that in the end we will not suffer the consequences of it.
Ma'am sorry karon pa nako na pass.
maam..ayaw mag open ng 2nd and last links..=)
