For safety, the fuse wire used in the mains for household supply of electricity must be made of metal having Low Melting Point

Explanation:

The fuse wire is made up to metals like as tin, lead, or zinc. These metals have low melting point.

Whenever a high current flows through the circuit either due to  short circuit or overloading, the wires gets heated up and melts. Thus, the circuit is broken and current stops flowing. In this way the fuse prevents the appliances from getting damaged due to overflow of current.
