Answer:

A copper wire cannot be used as a fuse wire because it has a high melting point. It will not melt easily when a high electric current passes through it and may damage the electrical appliances.

Answer:

Copper wire cannot be used as a fuse wire. A fuse wire needs to have a low melting point so that when excessive electricity passes through, the fuse wire should melt to avoid damage to the appliance. Copper, on the other hand, has a high melting point. Hence, when excessive electricity passes through, the copper wire doesn't melt, thereby causing damage to the appliance.
