		  Looks like one could use these instead of fuses or the traditional circuit breakers (for the average range of protection)



 But my question is do these trip the same as typical fuses ? I know they can reset but would it work like a fuse for time to trip or protection of the wire ? 	


 Are we sure we want a device that can reset itself?

 Doesn't that pretty much violate the premise of not resetting a tripped breaker?
