Question

Why is fuse connected in series with the circuit in our homes?

Open in App
Solution

Dear student, The fuse is always connected in series because when fuse melts, it breaks down the entire home circuit and no current flows through the entire circuit. In series connection the current for the entire house pass through the fuse, so if we connect it in series, at the time of any damages the current to entire house Will stop flowing. Regards
