Final answer:
The location of the protective over current device does not affect the amount of fault current it may have to interrupt.
Step-by-step explanation:
The location of the protective over current device does not affect the amount of fault current it may have to interrupt.
The purpose of the protective over current device, such as a circuit breaker or fuse, is to interrupt and protect against excessive current in a circuit, regardless of its location.
These devices are designed to detect abnormalities in current flow and quickly interrupt the circuit to prevent damage or hazards.
