A fuse protects the (expensive) circuit for too high currents. When the current becomes too high the (cheap) fuse melts and the current is stopped, preferably before damage has been done to the circuit.
An example of a circuit protection device is a fuse. Another example is a circuit breaker.
ummm a fuse.
If a fuse melts, it creates an OPEN circuit, meaning that no current flows in the wires because it is no longer a complete circuit.
Hopefully it's a fuse.
The fuse.
It does not have a circuit breaker. It uses a fuse to protect the circuit. Look for a blown fuse in the fuse panel under the dash on the drivers side.I believe the cigarette lighter circuit is protected with a glass barrel fuse not a circuit breaker. Check the fuse box for a blown fuse.
When there is a fuse, yes it is part of a circuit. The fuse is a cheap, replaceable circuit breaker to avoid damage to the circuit components.
a fuse is a way to secure a circuit from owerload, so a fuse is in a way a circuit in a circuit that owerload itself and breake the circuit inside itself to not damege the rest of the circuit. OR some thing conected to that sircuit.
A circuit breaker does not have a wire fuse in it.
circuit breaker, or "resettable fuse", which is a reallya small circuit breaker in the housing of a fuse
A circuit breaker/fuse is designed to protect the wiring from getting overloaded.
An example of a circuit protection device is a fuse. Another example is a circuit breaker.
A fuse or circuit breaker used in a circuit is usually inserted in series with the load.
By a fuse or a circuit breaker.
The function of a fuse is to stop the current from flowing by opening the circuit when the circuit amperage exceeds the rating of the fuse.
It is a circuit fuse in a vehicle. The fuse is used to protect the courtesy/clock circuit.
A circuit that keeps blowing a fuse, is caused by a Short in that circuit, loose connections causing arching, overloaded circuit, or a fuse that is too small for the circuit load. Do not install a fuse bigger than the circuit was designed to handle. Someone may have install too small a fuse. Check fuse list and see if the proper fuse is installed.
