Spurious Trip Level

A spurious trip level is something that can happen when a fuse is being used to control the flow of electricity. Fuses are a type of safety device that are designed to break or "trip" when too much electricity is flowing through them. A spurious trip level means that the fuse tripped for some reason other than too much electricity flowing through it. This could be because something got too hot, or the fuse was old, or some other unexpected cause.
