Answer:

If the amperage is too high, the fuse will blow, protecting the meter.

Step-by-step explanation:

Fuses are wires to prevent the destruction of electrical equipment. This destruction is caused by power surges

Digital Multimeters or DMMs are better fused, to avoid damage. This damage can occur if the amperage is too high and there is no fuse in the multimedia.

The fuse will get damaged first, therefore, disrupt the flow of current to the electronics.
