It causes the disruption of the fuse, switching off the disjunctor, or set on fire the conductors if there isn'ta circuit protector and therefore burns the parts of the electric device. The cause of too much current in a ciucuit is always a resistance that has a low value. To check the cause of the excess of current in a circuit is necessary to measure all the components.

What is a hypothesis stating how a fuse is used to prevent too much electric current from flowing through a circuit?

This would not be a hypothesis, but an explanation. A fuse is a piece of wire with a low melting point which melts if too much current flows in the circuit. It is designed to break before the rest of the circuit is damaged.

Why would electricity go off if too many appliances are running?

Circuit breakers are in place to prevent an over-current condition. When too much current is passed through a wire, it overheats and can result in fire. The circuit breaker is just doing its job when it turns off a circuit in that kind of condition. Too many appliances running simply means too much current on a circuit.


The role of the circuit breaker is what?

to prevent a circuit from overloading if too much current flow safely interrupt the circuit if it becomes overloaded


How do you over load a circuit?
