Many electrical appliances are designed to work at a particular rated current. Passage of current greater than the rated current will damage the appliance. To prevent electric appliances from getting damaged from an excessive flow of current, a safety device called a fuse is used. A fuse is a safety device which is used to control the current in an electric circuit.
Characteristics of a Fuse: It has a short length wire with a low melting point. The fuse wire is made an alloy containing equal amounts of lead and tin. It melts at about . Electric fuse consists of a solid porcelain grip with two copper clamps. A fuse wire is fixed between the two copper clamps.
Principle of an Fuse: The electric fuse works on the principle of heating effect of current. The amount of heating caused depends on the amount of current. An electric fuse consists of a thin wire usually placed inside a glass or ceramic cartridge. The wire is made of a material that melts easily when heated.
Working of a Fuse: A wire becomes heated when electric current passes through it. Wires made up of some special material that melts quickly and break when large electric currents are passed through them. The commonly used fuse wire is made of an alloy of tin and lead.
Fuses of different kinds are used for different purposes. Different fuse wires can have different thickness. Thicker wires can withstand more electric current. There is a maximum limit on the current which can pass through an appliance or circuit. If by accident the current exceeds the limits, this excess current will pass through the fuse wire and melt it.

It was a good experience with Abhyas Academy. I even faced problems in starting but slowly and steadily overcomed. Especially reasoning classes helped me a lot.
About Abhyas metholodology the teachers are very nice and hardworking toward students.The Centre Head Mrs Anu Sethi is also a brilliant teacher.Abhyas has taught me how to overcome problems and has always taken my doubts and suppoeted me.
One of the best institutes to develope a child interest in studies.Provides SST and English knowledge also unlike other institutes. Teachers are co operative and friendly online tests andPPT develope practical knowledge also.
Abhyas is a complete education Institute. Here extreme care is taken by teacher with the help of regular exam. Extra classes also conducted by the institute, if the student is weak.
I have spent a wonderful time in Abhyas academy. It has made my reasoning more apt, English more stronger and Maths an interesting subject for me. It has given me a habbit of self studying
Being a parent, I saw my daughter improvement in her studies by seeing a good result in all day to day compititive exam TMO, NSO, IEO etc and as well as studies. I have got a fruitful result from my daughter.
Abhyas Methodology is very good. It is based on according to student and each child manages accordingly to its properly. Methodology has improved the abilities of students to shine them in future.
My experience with Abhyas academy is very good. I did not think that my every subject coming here will be so strong. The main thing is that the online tests had made me learn here more things.
It has a great methodology. Students here can get analysis to their test quickly.We can learn easily through PPTs and the testing methods are good. We know that where we have to practice
It was good as the experience because as we had come here we had been improved in a such envirnment created here.Extra is taught which is beneficial for future.
