To Choose: The correct option.
Answer to Problem 8STP
Option C
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
Fuse: Whenever there is over current in the circuit, the fuse which has low melting point, melts and breaks the circuit.
Circuit breaker: It operates automatically detecting the fault condition and discontinues the flow of electricity.
Short circuit: When wire connections are damaged or exposed, excess current flows through the circuit.
Ground-fault interrupter: It detects small change in the current and swiftly cuts of power to prevent electric shock.
Conclusion:
Thus, option C is correct.
