A fuse prevents more than a certain amount of current from flowing in a particular circuit. What might happen if too much current were to flow? Select all that apply.
Too much current could damage the household wiring.
Too much current could damage electrical devices.
Too much current could create excess heat, starting a fire.
All the three options are applicable ,the fuse protects the circuit by breaking off when excess current flow and breaking the circuit ,the wires and electrical appliances have certain voltage and current specifications if current exceeds those specification it may damage the wires and electrical appliances,and if there is excess current excess heat is produced as power is I^2R excess current may lead to excessive heat and can produce a fire like in short circuit
