By which of the following methods major portion of the heat generated in a H.R.C. fuse is dissipated ?
Correct answer: C. Conduction
- A. Radiation
- B. Convection
- C. Conduction
- D. All of the above
Explanation
The fuse element transfers most of its generated heat to the surrounding filler and fuse body by conduction, which then carries it away. Radiation and convection contribute less in the enclosed HRC fuse.
