Fuse is a device that acts as a traffic controller in the electric circuit, it means it breaks the circuit when the power of current is more than what it it needed and prevents the possible damages ...

What are two ways electric circuits can be arranged?

Electric circuits with 2 terminals can be arranged in "series" or in "parallel". This applies to all 2-terminal circuits - including fundamental components such as resistors, capacitors, or inductors. The term "series" means that an electrical path in an existing circuit is broken and the circuit is connected to the 2 terminals of the break. The term "parallel" means that the electric circuit is connected between 2 existing terminals or nodes of the existing circuit.


What is the term for fuse?

THis is the term. Fuse is a current sensing device that is set to open at a predetermined amount. Once current passing thru the device exceeds its rating it opens the circuit to protect the circuitry behind it.

What does a switch do in circuit?

The actual term for switch is to turn a light on and off. Another term for it is that you can put in a circuit board and when it is joined to the other side the electricity will flow through and when it is unattached the electricity will not flow through.


What is meant by a defective fuse?

in electronics the term defective fuse can arise if. it does not open at Imax of it's value. it is releasing more flame after open circuit it generate heavy spikes. if it opens after very long time.


How current electricity moves in a circuit?

You need a source of electrical potential difference, also known as voltage (which is the technical term for what for you call "electric pressure"). The easiest and most common voltage source is a household battery. Hook up the positive electrode of the battery using a conductor (eg. a copper wire) to one end of your circuit and the negative electrode to the other end, and voila, you'll have electric current flowing through your circuit.
