Draw an appropriate schematic diagram showing common domestic circuits and discuss the importance of fuse. When is it that a burnt out fuse should be replaced by another fuse of identical rating?
A fuse in a circuit prevents damage to the appliances and the circuit due to overloading.
Importance of fuse: When the current exceeds the value of fuse rating, the fuse wire melts down as a result circuit gets broken up and current can’t move forward and hence, protecting the appliances.
