Q.

A Fuse wire is characterized by –

A. High resistance and low melting point
B. High resistance and high melting point
C. Low resistance and high melting point
D. Low resistance and low melting point
Answer» D. Low resistance and low melting point
Explanation: A fuse is a type of low resistance resistor that acts as a sacrificial device to provide over current protection, of either the load or source circuit. Low resistance causes the fusewire to melt if a current more than the safe current for the appliance starts flowing through the circuit.
