Typically, glass fuses have a low breaking capacity, while ceramic ones have a high breaking capacity. This is to help protect the surrounding circuits from molten material. And maybe the technician.

Yes as long as they are the same rating & for the purpose of overcurrent protection (short circuit, overload, device failure)... But ceramic fuse are also called "thermal fuse" which are commonly used in some applications (appliances) with heating element as "overheat protection"... In my own honest opinion, replacing the thermal fuse with a glass fuse would be quite risky... Put a little discretion in such action or better yet ask opinions of someone who are adept & experienced in such situation...
Because, if the fuse blows due to an interlock switch failure, it ruptures so hard that a regular glass fuse would shatter, possibly scattering shards of glass into the cooking area, which would create a health hazard.
ABE Fuse stands for a fast acting ceramic tube fuse
Zero. There is no resistance on an open fuse because there is no connection between the terminals on the fuse. I beg to differ There is INFINITE resistance in a BLOWN fuse... There is ZERO resistance in a GOOD fuse.
Test it with an ohm meter.
Put a continuity check on it. This can be done with an ohm meter. If there is no reading then the fuse is open.
Automobile Glass fuse
A = ceramic, rated at 250V (all values) L = glass, rated at 250V up to 8 amperes(?), but 32V for 9 amperes and above. NOTE: The voltage rating is important! http://www.cooperbussmann.com/pdf/2bd5c594-ca46-48ff-8b97-ab4af4af0569.pdf
The instructions to do glass fusing include melting glass at a high temperature to join and fuse glass together. One may need to use a glass kiln to successfully fuse glass.
It is a General Purpose Fast Blowing Ceramic fuse, one quarter by one and one quarter inches.
A fuse must be replaced if blown, a circuit breaker can be reset.
