The commonly used Safety fuse wires is made of?
Could be a lot of metals depending on how old it is. A coil of fuse wire hasn't been used in North America for over 50 years.
What number wire gauge for a single pole light switch?
In residential wiring applications the most used is 14 gauge wire for light switches as long as the circuit breaker or the fuse is 15A. If your lighting circuit is on a 20A fuse/circuit breaker then you need to use 12 gauge wire
What type of wire is used in fuse and why?
Fuse wire is usually made with metal that has a low melting point, e.g. tin, to lessen the risk of fire.
What are the mixtures in fuse wire?
tin lead alloybasically tin lead allows are used . but other metals which have low melting point and appropriate resistivity can be used
What will happen if a thick copper wire is used in fuse?
If a thick copper wire is used in a fuse then by definition of a fuse this device would no longer be defined as a fuse. A fuse in a circuit is used to protect the conductors feeding the load of that circuit. The circuit, if using a thick copper wire in a fuse, would then be considered as a non fused circuit.
What gauge wire do you need for?
It depends on where the wire is being used, but for the power supply for an ordinary domestic audio amplifier, wire of 0.75 mmsq is adequate, and need to be protected by a 5-amp fuse.

Why can't copper wire used as a fuse wire?
Metal with a lower melting point is preferred for fuse wire to reduce the risk of fire.
Is silver commonly used for making wires?
No, copper is commonly used to make wire.
Why can not copper wire be used as a fuse wire?
The fuse needs a low melting point and reletivelyhigh resistance so that it melts at the proper current

On the factory radio wire harness of a 2002 Oldsmobile Alero what color do you connect to the remote wire of your amplifier?
If you are unsure of the remote wire, locate your radio fuse and get a fuse connector. hook it into the fuse and run it wherever you need it. all the remote does is swith the equipment on and off.
Which metal used in fuse wires?
Apparently mainly tinned copper is used in fuse wires. I have heard that there are a lot of other metals used as teh fuse wire though!
How do you wire a fuse panel on a boat?
all the positives will go to fuse panel. The hot wire will come from battery to fuse panel. All the negatives will need to be joined together at the negative post of battery.
What are the mixtures in fuse wire?
tin lead alloybasically tin lead allows are used . but other metals which have low melting point and appropriate resistivity can be used
What is meant by 8swg fuse?
8swg refers to the diameter of wire used in a rewirable fuse-link. SWG stands for 'Standard wire gauge', a well-known classification system for wire diameters.
