Fuses are safety devices that are to be built into our electrical system. If there were no fuses and we operated too many appliances on a single circuit, the cable carrying the power for that circuit would get extremely hot, short circuit, and possibly start a fire. To prevent electrical overloads, fuses are designed to trip or blow, stopping the flow of current to the overloaded cable.

When a high current flows through the circuit due to overloading or short circuit, the wires gets heated and melts. As a result, the circuit isbroken and current stops flowing.

Answer:
fuse is a safety device. It is a thin wire made of tin and lead alloy having low melting point around 200°C. It is used to prevent the possible damage caused by overloading and short circuiting.
hope it helps you✌
