"overload protection"

Explanation:

"Food waste disposers" are machines that are used in order to shred the food wastes into bits of pieces. This allows the water pipes to be less clogged.

The "overload protection" is an essential protection required by the "Code Rules" for such type of appliance. This ensures that the appliance will remain integral by being protected from burning if, in case, it overheats. This also includes not only the food-waster disposers but also the "dishwashers."
