An electrician is carrying out some repairs in your house. He wants to replace a fuse by a piece of wire. Would you agree? Give reasons for your response.
No, the electrician should not be allowed to replace the fuse in the house with a piece of wire. This is because every wire cannot be used as a fused filament. A fused filament must have a low melting point such that it could melt and break in response to a large amount of current.
