How does a circuit breaker operate?
A circuit breaker can be magnetic; the higher the current is the stronger the magnetic field will be, if the magnetic field gets strong enough it will pull open the circuit. A circuit breaker can also be thermal; as current travels through the circuit heat is generated (higher current = more heat), in the breaker there is two different kinds of metal bonded together, each will expand and contract at different rates, since they are bonded together they will bend and trip the circuit open. A circuit breaker can be a combination of magnetic and thermal.
When using a 30 amp fuse on a single circuit in a series will you have a problem using a 10amp and a 23.9 amp appliance at the same time?
Well, do the math. You shouldn't run a combined load of 33.9 amps off a circuit fused at 30 amps. Depending on the type of fuse (if it is a fuse and not a circuit breaker), the fuse may burn instantly or hold for a while before burning.
What happens when you connect live wire to ground?
Connecting a live wire to ground can cause a short circuit. This can lead to a sudden surge of electricity flowing through the circuit and may result in a tripped circuit breaker or blown fuse, as well as potential damage to electrical equipment and a risk of fire. It can also pose a serious shock hazard to anyone in contact with the grounded object.
How works oil circuit breakers?
A circuit breaker is a safety device that is put in an electrical circuit. When something fails, or shorts out, the circuit breaker "senses" the excessive current and automatically opens (or breaks) the circuit. They are used in homes, as well as some electrical devices. They are different than a fuse in that a circuit breaker can be reset. A fuse on the other hand, has to be replaced once it opens up.

What is exactly answer of circuit breaker?
A circuit breaker is an overcurrent protection device. As well as being able to open and close a circuit supplying its rated load, a circuit breaker must also be capable of interrupting and closing onto an overcurrent, including a short-circuit fault, without damaging itself.
How is the fuel pump on a 1989 Ford Bronco XLT powered is it by a fuse or circuit breaker and where is it?
it should be powered by a fuse that can be found under the hood in a secondary fuse compartment or/and it has a fuel pump relay switch located by your airfilter. Well if your wondering where the fuel pump is it is located inside you gas tank. That's right you have to drop your tank just to change your fuel pump....FORD gotta love them.
Why won't my well pump turn on?
There could be several reasons why your well pump won't turn on. It could be due to a power issue, a problem with the pressure switch, a malfunctioning control box, a blown fuse or circuit breaker, or a faulty pump motor. It is recommended to check these components and consult a professional if needed to diagnose and fix the issue.
Why do none of the windows work but there is not a fuse and circuit breaker is good what next?
I had the same problem with our 1998 Pontiac GP. Both windows suddenly failed to operate. Checked the circuit breaker, that was fine. Could not find any other type of fuse related to the windows. The answer? The electrical pigtail that should have been plugged into the two window operating switches on the drivers side door had come loose. Once reconnected, all was well. (To access the wiring, just GENTLY pry up the switch panel from the bottom - below the two window switches.)
What Type of equipment of circuit breaker?
Well from my experience , i know that the equipment used for testing is called, Electroclysis Differentiator with a Dicasidace Robinium resistor.
What does a eletrical fuse do?
a fuse is something In a circuit ...that probably wont help ...oh well!
Where is the circuit breaker that controls the power door locks and courtesy lights in a 1993 Chevy Lumina?
if your cig light is not working as well, the fuse is in the glove box top and last in that row, had the same problom.
What size circuit breaker to use on well pump?
To determine the correct size circuit breaker for a well pump, you should check the manufacturer's recommendations on the pump's label or in the manual. Typically, most well pumps require a 15-amp or 20-amp circuit breaker for residential use. Make sure the breaker is appropriately sized for the pump's power requirements to avoid damage or safety hazards.
