    Fuses are electrical devices that protect circuits from overcurrent and overload. They contain a conductive element designed to melt and open the circuit if too much current flows through. Different colored fuses like red, black, and green indicate their permitted current ratings, with fuses acting as a sacrificial weak link to safely disconnect circuits during faults.

    FUSES
     A Fuse or an Electric Fuse is an Electrical / Electronic device that protects
    the circuit from different electrical faults like over current and overload.
    Fuses can be considered as a sacrificial element in the circuit as they act
    as a weak link in the entire circuit.
     The cross section area of this conducting material is designed such that it
    allows a certain amount of current that is permitted to flow in the circuit.
     When the current in the circuit exceeds this permitted value (which may
    be caused due to overload, short circuit or load mismatch), this excessive
    current will melt the conductive element in the fuse and opens the circuit.
