NEW, UNUSED, fresh out of the box. In electronics and electrical engineering, a fuse is an electrical safety device that operates to provide overcurrent protection of an electrical circuit. Its essential component is a metal wire or strip that melts when too much current flows through it, thereby interrupting the current.
Cartridge fuses are used to protect motors and branch circuits where higher amps or volt ratings are required. General Purpose fuses have no time-delay and protect fuse panels, appliances, and branch circuits.
