Safety Fuse

A safety fuse is a protective device designed to prevent electrical shocks or damage by interrupting the flow of electricity when a fault or overload occurs. It consists of a metal wire or strip that melts and breaks the circuit if the current exceeds a safe level, effectively shutting off power. This prevents overheating, fires, or damage to appliances and wiring. Once triggered, the fuse must be replaced to restore functionality. Safety fuses are essential components in electrical systems for maintaining safety and equipment integrity.
