Claim 15:
16. An adaptable wire protector system comprising:
a wire;
a power source;
an adjustable wire protector configured with a first set of trip data, wherein the adjustable wire protector is further configured to disconnect the wire from the power source when a current through the wire reaches a predefined current threshold, and wherein the predefined current threshold is set to a first current level of the first set of trip data when the adjustable wire protector is configured with the first set of trip data; and
a measurement and calculation circuit configured to:
compare measurement data for a resistance of the wire with a comparative value data held in a data storage;
determine whether the wire fails an integrity check based on the comparison of the measurement data for the resistance of the wire with the comparative value data;
determine, in response to a determination that the wire failed the integrity check, a second set of trip data based on the measurement data for the resistance of the wire; and
set the adjustable wire protector using the second set of trip data, wherein, to set the adjustable wire protector using the second set of trip data, the measurement and calculation circuit is configured to reduce the predefined current threshold to a second current level of the second set of trip data and wherein the second current level is less than the first current level.
