Why is the fuse wire necessary in a circuit . How does it work
Answers
Answer:
Fuses are always connected in series with the component(s) to be protected from overcurrent, so that when the fuse blows (opens) it will open the entire circuit and stop current through the component(s).
Explanation:
The fuse breaks the circuit if a fault in an appliance causes too much current to flow. This protects the wiring and the appliance if something goes wrong. The fuse contains a piece of wire that melts easily. If the current going through the fuse is too great, the wire heats up until it melts and breaks the circuit.
Answer:
Why is a fuse necessary in a circuit? How does it work?
- A fuse is a necessary in a circuit because it prevents a large amount of current from flowing in a circuit.
A fuse consists of an alloy that has a low melting point fitted on a surface made of porcelain or glass. When the current in a circuit increases because of some fault, the wire becomes hot and melts, thus breaking the circuit before damage is done.
