What is the difference between overload and overcurrent? What are the effects of them?
Can you please explain to me the difference between overload and overcurrent?
Certainly. Overcurrent is when the current in a circuit exceeds its rated value for a specific period of time. Overload, on the other hand, is when a device draws more current than it's designed to handle, but not necessarily for an extended period.
