Frequently Asked Questions:
Q. What is the function of the fuse flutes?
A Fusible link is a short, low-voltage wire that acts as a fuse in a vehicle's wiring harness. Fusible links provide circuit protection in the wiring of a vehicle in the case of a short circuit or voltage spike. These insulated wires may be used in applications in which an automotive fuse is unsuitable.
Q. How does a fusible link differ from a fuse?
A. Fusible links serve the same fundamental purpose as fuses, though with a subtle variation. In the realm of automotive applications, a fusible link refers to a wire segment that possesses a notably smaller gauge compared to the wire it is intended to safeguard.
Q. Does a fuse link protect a circuit?
A. Yes, a fusible link protects a circuit. It is shorter and thinner piece of wire compared to normal wires in the circuit. When connected to a stronger fuse that can handle high currents, usually 30 amps or more, it keeps the circuit safe by preventing high current flow.
