Question

Electric fuse is always connected in parallel to the electric wiring.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

1. An electric fuse is always connected in series with the live wire.
2. So that the current passes first through it before passing through the appliances connected to the circuit.
3. If heavy current flows or short circuit condition, the current flows through the fuse and breaks the circuit to protect the electrical appliances connected to the circuit.
4. In this way, we can protect our electrical appliances from being damaged.
5. If the fuse is connected in parallel then during heavy current flow the fuse will damage but appliances will also damage.

Hence, the given statement is false.
