    Explain the use of an electric fuse. What type of material is used for fuse wire and why?

It is inserted in the electric circuit so that, if current in the circuit exceeds the maximum value, the fuse wire gets overheated and melt, thus breaks the circuit connection, which would otherwise may cause short circuit.
