The fuse is arranged in series to carry all the current passing through the protected circuit. ... The fuse element is made of zinc, copper, silver, aluminum, or alloys toprovide stable and predictable characteristics. The fuse ideally would carry its rated current indefinitely, and melt quickly on a small excess.

The reason if the wire in an electric fuse is made up of the material that melts easily is as follows:
Explanation:
- Fuse wire is used to protect the electrical devices against the shock due to heavy loads of current.
- When the load of current is high the fuse wire absorb and melt the heat from the electric current and the circuit of the device breaks to prevent the circulation of current to the device.
- The fuse wire is composed of material with low melting point so that the higher currents are passed and breaks the circuit.
