Question

An electrician is carrying out some repairs in your house. He wants to replace a fuse by a piece of wire. What property of conducting wire would you suggest to use as fuse wire?

(NEED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE)

Answer 1

Answer:

A wire  must have a low melting point such that it could melt and break in response to a large amount of current.

Answer 2

Answer:

No replacing a fuse with wire is not suggestible

Explanation:

the fuses that we have at our houses are basically designed to prevent any kind of short circuit Or electric surges that can damage the electric appliances for major accidents

Due to short circuit replacing them with wires can increase the risk of damage Moreover the fise wire is very thin and has a very low melting poitu.

Hence when the flow of current in circuit is more than normal the fuse wire starts to heat and melts thereby disconnecting the circuit but with a normal wire this will not happen and the electrical appliances are compromised.
