FUSE WIRE

Fuse wire is a safety device to limit the current in an electric circuit. It gets melted when excess current flows in a circuit. It works with the principle of heating effect of electric current. It is made with an alloy of lead and tin (solder wire).
Its material has two important properties
1. It has low melting point (around 250 degree celcius).
2.  It has high resistivity.
