Question

State two properties of the material of fuse wire which makes it suitable for use.

Answer 1

1. An electrical fuse is an electrical instrument that is used to prevent damage to an electrical circuit.
2. It is a metal wire of low melting point that breaks due to overheating of wire which is caused by a high voltage to avoid short circuit.
3. A fuse is a circuit component made of a high-resistance substance that melts when the circuit is overloaded.
4. Thus, the two such properties are low melting points and high resistance.
