Do fuse wires have a high or low resistance?

0

Fuse wires have the perfect resistance for the application that their being used for if everything is designed correctly. Fuse wires are designed to blow when too many amps flow through them to try to save whatever components are beyond the fuse wire. Hopefully, they’re the first thing to melt, because that’s what they’re designed for. However, a fuse wire’s resistance is designed for it’s application. It could be 15 amps like a circuit in your house), or 1000’s of volts at a substation. All I can say is that they should have a low resistance relative to their application.
