 Electrical substation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A substation is a subsidiary station of an electricity generation, transmission and distribution system where voltage is transformed from high to low or the reverse using transformers.
Apart from the transformers, the main components in a substation are the circuit breakers that are used to interrupt any short-circuits or overload currents that may occur on the network.
Substations may be on the surface in fenced enclosures, underground, located in special-purpose buildings, located on power poles (aerial substations) or located in the service areas of the buildings they service.

 Home Electrical Guide: How To Check a Fusebox - ACME HOW TO.com
A fuse provides protection for each of your electrical circuits by stopping the flow of current if an overload or fault occurs.
When an electrical short occurs or the load on your circuit becomes too great, the fuse on that circuit burns out and breaks the circuit; this is what is referred to as a "blown fuse." If your home uses circuit breakers instead of fuses, click here.
Replace the fuse with a fuse that is of the proper rating for the circuit.

 Tech Tips
When you are sure that the electrical system is not experiencing problems due to overload, yet the engagement of a particular component is causing system failure, discontinue use of that system until the component can be thoroughly inspected by a qualified technician.
In the event you encounter a problem with the RV electrical system, start by checking the 12-Volt fuses and 120-Volt AC circuit breakers to confirm that they are in working condition.
Location and amperage of fuses and breakers are generally determined by licensing requirements and should never be tampered with or moved in an attempt to streamline storage capacity.

 Electrical Question
A 'hair dryer' is unable to blow a fuse in a particular electrical outlet unless it's overload.
If your electrical wire is up to code and in good working condition no 'hair dryer' should be able to trip a fuse unless you poor water on it or there is a mechanical problem with the hair dryer....
Assuming that you were able to reset breaker/replace fuse and the circuit "held", the problem would obviously be somewhere in the wiring.

 Fuse, Electrical Resistance, Electrical Fuses, Electric Fuse, Electrical Fuse
Some fuses, called slow-blow fuses, are designed to carry a small overload for a short time without opening the circuit, while others are designed to open very rapidly if the rated current is exceeded.
Because of its electrical resistance, the alloy strip in the fuse is heated by an electric current; if the current exceeds the safe value for which the fuse was designed, the strip melts, opening the circuit and stopping the current.
A Fuse is a safety device used to protect an electronic circuit against an excessive current.

 homeelec.txt
If the fuse in the box is rated higher than that idicated for the circuit, excessive current will be allowed to flow and possibly overload the outlet and house wiring to the point that a fire can begin.
Reduce the fuses to 15-ampere rated ones, unless you are absolutely certain that a special circuit is wired for 20 amperes.
If fuses continue to "blow", keep track of which branch circuits are affected and which appliances are in use when the power outage occurs.

The Class CC current limiting fuses, frequently used in applications for small motor branch circuit protection, are available in both time-delay and fast-acting models.
Fuses can be used for a variety of overcurrent and overload applications.
With most low voltage current limiting fuses (less than or equal to 600 volts) having a 200,000 A interrupting rating, you are not paying a high premium for a high interrupting capacity.

 Electrical Power Grid
The grid normally operates with a strategically safe 20-30% surplus; this means that a deficit of more than 20-30% could cause the system to be stressed to the point of overload, and could pull the rest of the grid down with it.
Like the regional power outage of the Northeast in the 1965, and the recent outage of the Northwest, (caused by faulty transmission lines in Oregon..or was it Idaho?) power failures occur in a cascading manner.
Futher complicating the reliability of the power grid is the peak in geo-magnetic activity which will accompany the year 2000 solar sunspot peak, which could cause large scale blackouts.

 Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation
The use of electrical impulses to relieve pain, also known as transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS), is a fairly recent development.
If these T cells are considered as a gate through which the signals must pass, an overload of the quicker moving A signals would block the slower moving pain signal from reaching the brain.
According to the gate theory, pain is experienced by the body because it travels along nerve fibers towards a part of the brain, the thalamus, or "pain-center" of the brain, which tells the body to feel pain.

Because VF inevitably causes myocyte Ca overload, this vicious circle between myocyte Ca and VF might be a critical mechanism of failed defibrillation and postshock re-induction of VF.
Accordingly, myocyte Ca overload has been shown to be related to the initiation of tachyarrhythmic activity in isolated hearts or in cardiomyocytes of rats or ferrets using bioluminescence or fluorescence of intracellular Ca indicators (e.g.
Elevated myocyte Ca (Ca overload) has generally been accepted to be responsible for the initiation of potentially lethal ventricular tachyarrhythmias including ventricular fibrillation (VF) in various pathological conditions such as digitalis toxicity, myocardial ischemia, or heart failure.

Conventional circuit breakers "trip" if an overload or short circuit is detected, which shuts off the electrical power.
When an arc fault occurs inside the walls or ceiling, or inside an electrical appliance, temperatures can exceed 10,000° F. Nearby combustibles like wood studs or insulation can be ignited by an electrical arc.
It is typical that electrical panel manufacturers also make the circuit breakers that fit into their panels.

 Circuit breaker - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A circuit breaker is a piece of equipment which is designed to protect an electrical apparatus from damage caused by overload or short circuit.
Circuit breakers such as this are the most common style in modern domestic consumer units and commercial electrical distribution boards throughout Europe.
This allows the properties of the circuit breaker to be tailored to suit the application, with the electromagnet generally responding to short, large surges in current (short circuit) and the bimetallic strip responding to smaller but longer-term (overload) overcurrent conditions.
