Electric detonators are devices used to initiate explosives through an electric current. They consist of a small explosive charge and a wire that connects to a power source. When the current flows through the wire, it ignites the charge, causing the main explosive to detonate. These detonators are commonly used in construction, mining, and demolition. The use of electric detonators offers precise timing and control over explosions, making them safer and more efficient than traditional methods. They can be triggered remotely, reducing the risk to personnel. Electric detonators are an essential tool in industries that require controlled blasting, such as mining and construction.
