Pronunciation: /ˈkɜ rənt ˈlɪmɪtɪŋ ˌɪntəˈrʌptər/ (Standard American English pronunciation)
Definition:
Current Limiting Interrupter (CLI) (noun) - It is an electrical protection device designed to automatically terminate a circuit’s conduction upon detecting an excessive electrical flow while also restricting the magnitude of that electrical flow during the termination sequence.
Significance:
• It defines a type of electrical protection device.
• It emphasizes its function of both limiting and interrupting the electrical flow.
• It identifies the protection it provides contrary to excessive current.
• It avoids the use of prohibited origins within possible definition parameters.
• It improves comprehension of this specific type of circuit protection.
• It replaces more verbose descriptions of the device.

Get the The mexican current mug.It's an underrated band formed in 2011. The members are the singer Chrissy Costanza, the guitarist Dan Gow& the drummer Will Ferri. At first, they covered popular songs, mostly with youtubers like Alex Goot or also with Set It Off. Then, after they received a small fanbase, ATC released their first original song called "Thinking". They also toured together with bands like Stateside,Set It Off and The Faim. Now, they've got 2 EPs & 2 albums out: The Infinity EP (2014), The Gravity EP (2015), In Our Bones (2017) & Past Lives (2018). The fans are called Outsiders (reference to their song "Outsider") but also ATC Fam. I could go on talking about them for years but just check them out, they deserve way more appreciation!!
Someone: can you define AgainstTheCurrent for me? You talk a lot about it but I really don't know what this is.
Me: Yes of course, Against The Current is an underrated band, you really need to listen to AgainstTheCurrent, you can't imagine how much they mean to me, I love all their songs, album & I really like the personality of every member, like—
Someone: oh ok I'll listen to them later thank u

Get the Current Meta mug.Sinewave-formed electricity dat successively produces a different "word sound" --- i.e., "hum", "buzz", "drone", "whine", etc. --- a third of da time.
Usually da power-lines are fairly quiet in dry weather, but rain or drizzle often really brings out da "three-phrase current" status of said slim silvery wires!
