Answer 2

Answer;

• It is best to replace with a fuse the same size.
• The piece of equipment plugged into the circuit will stop working.

Explanation;

• A fuse is a device that is placed in a circuit and whose purpose is to break the circuit when necessary, that is when the current in the circuit goes beyond the required amount, mostly called power surge. this makes all the equipment connected in a circuit to stop working as there is no power supply.
• By breaking the circuit when there is a power charge, fuses protect the equipment connected to the circuit against the damaging effects of electrical surges, when there is excess currents.
• When a circuit blows out, it is advisable to replace it with another fuse of the same size.
