Question

Should fuse have low resistance or high.Give reason

Open in App
Solution

Fuses generally have a lower resistance as they are required to break when too much energy flows through them. Fuses work using the heat that electricity generates, once there is too much current flow, the appliance gets hotter but the fuse will break before any damage will occur.

Hope this helps :)
