Fuse (electrical) size of cable so that the limiter clears a fault before the cable insulation is damaged. The Unicode character for the fuse's schematic symbol, found in the Miscellaneous Technical block, is (⏛). A fuse is a safety device Fuse (electrical) In electronics and electrical engineering, a fuse is an electrical safety device that operates to provide overcurrent protection of an electrical circuit. Its essential component is a metal wire or strip that melts when too much current flows through it, thereby interrupting the current. It is a sacrificial device; once a fuse has operated it is an open circuit, and
Electrical room that handle flammable gases or liquids, or combustible dusts, special electrical rooms may be prepared that have ventilation and other measures to prevent an explosion hazard that would otherwise exist with electrical equipment in hazardous areas. For large installations, it may be less costly overall to use a special room than to install a large number of devices that are resistant to the hazardous conditions. Similarly, in wet or corrosive environments, electrical equipment may be separated in a room that can be protected from the atmospheric conditions. Building code and electrical code regulations will dictate minimal working space around equipment
