Solution

The correct option is C


There is a minimum limit on the current which can safely flow in the electric circuits.


A fuse is a safety device which limits current in the circuit and, as a result, prevents electrical circuits from getting damaged.​ In the case of an electric fuse, there is only a maximum limit on the current which can safely flow in the electric circuits.
