Answer:

B. It is best to replace with a fuse the same size.

D. The piece of equipment plugged into the circuit will stop working.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this purpose we know that when large current flows through the switch then it will melt due to heating effect of current and the circuit becomes open and it stops working.

This phenomenon will useful to protect the appliances from large flow of current.

B. It is best to replace with a fuse the same size.

D. The piece of equipment plugged into the circuit will stop working.
