Explanation:

Fuses are sacrificial devices used to protect much more expensive electrical components from the damaging effects of overcurrent. Fuses consist of a low-resistance metal or wire that is used to close a circuit.

Answer:-

HEY MATE,

HERE'S YOUR ANSWER.

=> A fuse is a small, thin conductor designed to melt and separate into two pieces for the purpose of breaking a circuit in the event of excessive current.

The function of a fuse is usually to prevent fire, that's the basic protection a fuse offers, between power supply and appliance. There may be a few feet or metres of cable, if a short circuit occurs in the appliance, the cable could easily become overheated (due to excess current) and burn or rupture its insulation.

HOPE IT HELPS YOU.
