Some usefulness of Fuse:
1.) A fuse wire is a safety measure to prevent electric fires and short circuits, without using Fuse we will be facing daily short circuited electric circuits.

2.) Device which require high current can damage permanently causing loss of money and resources.

3) Also, fuse prevents electric fires.
Basically, Fuse wire is a conductor wire with a very low melting point. this reason firstly fuse wire melts and break connection of supplier circuit to receiver circuit due to this electric current stops to move in electric appliances and wires further we safe from electric fires.

4) Some devices require very high amount of current, the flow of so much current can sometime cause the melting of the insulating wire due to heating effect of the electric current.This can result into severe electric fires. To prevent these situation a fuse is introduced into the circuit, which is made up of a low melting point conductor wire.
