Can we use HRC fuse inplace of semi conductor fuse ? What
are difference between them?

Answer Posted / thiagarajan.e

No we should not use the hrc fuse in place of semiconductor fuse.Because the hrc fuse will act ,at the time of short circuit or the current exceeding the fuse limit.But the semiconductor fuse will act when the current exceeding as well as no current in the circuit,where the voltage exceeds the fuse limit.So on any instant we will not match each other.
With best regards,

Can u explain : what is supply for train (whether a,c or d.c ).I know that supply is 25000v a.c .But there is rumour that supply is D.C. And also explain how lights and fans inside the trains are working ,and what type of motors are used in trains whether D.C motors or induction motors .If d.c motor, how it gets supply.If traction motors are used then what are traction motors and its functions and how it differs from other motors and also explain about locomotive . y d.c series motor in train.train wheels r driven by D.C shunt motor ,at what voltage,and at what speed. please reply..............
