Question
- the voltage rating on a fuse indicates the ________. a minimum voltage at which a fuse will turn on b voltage at which the fuse wire melts c open circuit voltage of the fuse d closed circuit voltage level of the fuse
Brief Explanations
A fuse is an electrical - safety device. Its voltage rating is the maximum voltage at which it can safely interrupt a circuit when it blows. It is not related to the minimum voltage to turn on, the voltage at which the wire melts (which is more related to current), or open - closed circuit voltages in the given context.
