Aaj ke time mein har ghar mein water heater ek zaroori appliance ban chuka hai, lekin kabhi-kabhi yeh achanak kaam karna band kar deta hai. Aise mein sabse pehle jo cheez check karni chahiye, woh hai iska fuse. Agar aap yeh jaanne ki koshish kar rahe hain ki water heater ka fuse kahan hota hai, toh yeh article aapke kaafi kaam aane wala hai.
Sabse pehle yeh samajhna zaroori hai ki water heater do tareeke ke hote hain—gas aur electric. Gas water heater mein fuse ka concept nahi hota, kyunki yeh electric system pe direct kaam nahi karta. Lekin agar aapka electric water heater band ho gaya hai, toh ho sakta hai ki iska fuse blown ho gaya ho ya koi aur electrical issue ho.
Electric water heater ka fuse generally do jagah ho sakta hai. Sabse pehla, aapka ghar ka main circuit breaker panel. Yeh panel usually garage, basement ya kisi kam traffic wale area mein hota hai. Water heater ka breaker check karein—agar woh off position mein hai, toh ho sakta hai ki overload ya short circuit ki wajah se fuse trip ho gaya ho. Is case mein aapko breaker ko off karke phir se on karna hoga.
Dusra option hai heater ke andar ka thermal fuse ya reset button. Bohot saare modern water heaters ek high limit switch ke saath aate hain jo overheat hone par automatically trip ho jata hai. Yeh button water heater ke upar ya side pe ek small panel ke andar chhupa ho sakta hai. Aapko panel ka cover screwdriver se kholna padega, aur andar ek chhota sa red button dikh sakta hai jo reset button hota hai. Agar yeh trip ho gaya hai, toh isse press karke reset karne ki koshish karein.
Agar in sabke baad bhi heater kaam nahi kar raha, toh ho sakta hai ki fuse ya heating element damage ho gaya ho, jise replace karna padega. Iska best solution yeh hoga ki ek certified electrician ya plumber se contact karein, taki aap bina kisi risk ke apna heater theek karwa sakein.
Toh agar aapka water heater kaam nahi kar raha, sabse pehle circuit breaker aur reset button check karein. Agar koi major issue lag raha hai, toh bina der kiye expert ki madad lein, taki aapko bina kisi dikkat ke garam paani milta rahe!
