Answer / ashokareem
It is working as a Swicth.If the voltageecced the rating
capacity automatically the fuse connector is got burn(OFF).
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 3 Yes | 1 No |
Answer / rodney
a protective device which breaks whenever current flowing
through it exceeds the rated current.thus breaking the
circuit,only under fault conditions.

The purpose of fuses
protection of short circuit, (to avoid the major damejas)
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 2 Yes | 0 No |
Answer / majeed
It is an electrical device which has certain melting point
vlaue accordind to the rated current of the wire. If the
current in the wire exceeds the rated current the fuse
melts thus stopping the faulty current and avoids short
circuit in the device and performing healthy operation in
the device.
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 1 Yes | 2 No |
Answer / kapil
it is made up of low melting point wire. when current
exceeds the rated value,the wire gets melted due to which
fuse disconnect the ckt.thus we get satisfactory operation
of devices
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 1 Yes | 3 No |
it is switch when current and voltage increased in that specification

10 Answers Infosys, Khartoum Refinery,
what is the exact direction of current? as we know current travels from higher potential to lower potential,so if we take battery +ve to -ve implies current direction is from positive terminal to negative terminal.,whereas electrons flow from negative to positive as they are attracted by positive ions.current will be the plow of charge but not flow of positive ions.please clarify my doubt friends.
