Question

we should never use a copper wire instead of the fuse wire in an electric fuse? give reasons

Answer 1

ANSWER:

@we can not use copper wire insted of fuse becase the melting point of the

copper is more as and it's resistance

is low so current can flow through it with out melting or breking the circuit

@Copper wire cannot be used

as a fuse wire since melting point of Cu is higher and resistance

is very low and current can flow through

it without melting it and without

breaking the circuit resulting in

appliance damage

@.fuse wire is made of tin alloy because it has low melting point, so that it may melt easily, whereas a copper wire cannot be used as a fuse wire because it has a high melting point due to which it will not melt easily when a short circuit takes place
