Question

fuse wire is an used as a Precautionary
measure in an
electric equipment​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Fuse is one safety measures commonly used in electric circuits and appliances. Fuses must be of low melting point, low ohmic loss, high conductivity (or low resistivity), low cost and free from detraction. The material used for making fuse element has a low melting point such as tin, lead, or zinc.

Answer 2

Answer:

fuse wire is used as a precautionary measure in electric equipment because when a high current carrying charge passes through the wire, the fuse wire melts because of the heat produced...This prevents the high current from reaching the appliances and damaging them
