Solution

The correct option is D Electric fuse
An electric fuse is a thin metal wire that is connected at the main power supply of a household. The current reaching every electrical appliance in the house will pass through this wire. In this way, whenever there is a large harmful flow of current into the house, the fuse melts and protects the appliances from damage.
