An electric fuse is used to cut off the circuit when excess energy is passed through it.....generally metals having low mwlting points are used to make fuse wires

Answer 2

An electronic fuse is a safety device used to save d electrical appliances.
the fuse is placed in series with the device.
it is made up of an alloy with low melting point for eg. lead n tin.
if a current larger than d specified value flows through d current, d temperature of the fuse wire increases.this melts the fuse wire n breaks d circuit.
