When power surges happen components can fail. One of the main jobs of an engineer is to anticipate those faults and to predict how the system will behave when confronted with a fault or a combination of faults. With that information, the engineer can determine the best way to respond when faced with how to spec voltages, surges or failed components.
In this video, you will learn about three main types of system faults: voltage, current and temperature and the fundamentals of power protection.
