Question

Answer the following.
write the importance of fuse wire .
​

Answer 1

Answer:

In electronics and electrical engineering, a fuse is an electrical safety device that operates to provide overcurrent protection of an electrical circuit. Its essential component is a metal wire or strip that melts when too much current flows through it, thereby stopping or interrupting the current.

Fuse wire are used in electric circuits to protect home appliances from damaging by huge amount amount of current. Fuse wire should be such that it melts immediately when strong current flows through the circuit. The same is possible if its melting point is low and resistivity or the resistance is high.

Answer 2

Answer:

A fuse(s) is needed in any electrical system (AC or DC). These protection devices react to the amount of heat being produced by electricity passing through wires and/or components. They are used so as to protect wires and components from the extreme heat produced should there be an electrical overload or short circuit.
