A cable that's shorting itself (bad), and a fuse breaker that wont trip from a short... (even worse)
.... or a burning house to be.
The breaker will still trip. They trip internally.
Depends if its shit tier breaker or not x)
Thanks. I have never seen the last thing, what the numbers indicates?
It's a 20 amp breaker.
Yep, that shorted cable and the plug will melt and diassemble before the breaker has a reason to act.
How many amps it can take before its meant to flip/cut the circut.
What about a fuse box?
Just jam a penny in there. No need for fuses.
D... Do I put the whole cheese-wedge in there?
Always
Once upon a time I went to pull an outlet splitter out of the wall, and it broke. It began shorting itself and arcing. Legit one of the most terrifying things I've experienced. I'm lucky nothing exploded and sent shrapnel into my eyes - a possibility I didn't learn about until later.
Quick question, is this one of the situations where ibdividually switched sockets and fused plugs are a lot better?
If so, I don't see why other countries don't use at least switched sockets. Unless they do, and I just have never seen the switch.
