    A fuse is a component that turns off power in a circuit when too much current flows through and overheats it. It melts when there is too much current, stopping electricity flow to protect the circuit from overheating or catching fire. Thomas Edison patented the fuse in 1890 for his electric distribution system.

    By Isabella
    What is a fuse?
    A fuse is a component that turns off the power in a circuit when to much current
    flows through the circuit and overheats the circuit. A fuse will melt when there is
    too much current stopping the flow of electricity. This stops the circuit from
    overheating and possibly catching fire. A fuse is a form of protection.
    Other Information
    The fuse was patented by Thomas Edison in 1890. He made it for his electric
    distribution system.
    The symbol for the fuse is shown below.
