Smart Building and Home Application Guide
Discover Littelfuse technologies that enhance circuit protection, power control, and sensing accuracy in building and home automation applications.
GFCI outlets, AFCI outlets, and RCD breakers keep the lights on. This block diagram shows Littelfuse components that help the required safety devices break circuits when overcurrents, arc flashes, or residual currents occur. In addition to thyristors that serve as silicon-controlled rectifiers for trip circuits, we make metal oxide varistors and TVS diodes to protect circuits from voltage surges.
