    Clause 3 – How to understand the definition of “thermal cut-out”

    Bygezhi-tech December 23, 2024September 27, 2025

    thermal-cut-out: device which during abnormal operation limits the temperature of the controlled part by automatically opening the circuit, or by reducing the current, and is constructed so that its setting cannot be altered by the user. There are three key provisions here. First, the thermal cut-out is a heat-sensing element, second, it can only be…

    Clause 3 – How to understand the definition of “thermostat”

    Bygezhi-tech December 22, 2024September 27, 2025

    thermostat: temperature-sensing device, the operating temperature of which may be either fixed or adjustable and which during normal operation keeps the temperature of the controlled part between certain limits by automatically opening and closing a circuit. The thermostat itself does not control the temperature, the thermostat senses the temperature and controls the temperature by switching…
