How Wires, Fuses, and Connectors Work
The main job of the fuse is to protect the wiring. Fuses should be
sized and located to protect the wire they are connected to. If a
device like your car radiosuddenly draws enough current to blow the
fuse, the radio is probably already toast. The fuse is there to
protect the wire, which would be much harder to replace than the
radio.
Most cars have two fuse panels. The one in the engine compartment
holds the fuses for devices like the cooling fans, the anti-lock
brake pump and the engine control unit -- all of which are located
in the engine compartment. Another fuse panel, usually located in
the dashboard near the driver's knees, holds fuses for the devices
and switches located in the passenger compartment.
Interior fuse panel
We saw in the last section how the heat build-up in the wire depends on the resistance and the amount of current flowing through the wire. Fuses are really just a special type of wire in a self-contained connector. Most automotive fuses today have two blade connectors and a plastic housing that contains the conductor. There are also some fuses that are in the wiring of the car, called fusible links.
The conductor inside the fuse is made of a metal similar to solder. It has a lower melting point than the wire itself. The size of the conductor is calibrated very carefully so that when the rated current is reached, enough heat is generated to melt the conductor and so break the circuit.
When a fuse is blown, it must be replaced before the circuit will work. A blown fuse must be replaced with a fuse of the same amperage.
Checking Fuses
The most foolproof way to check a fuse is to pull it out of its
receptacle and hook up a continuity tester to both blades of the
fuse. But if you do this while the fuse is plugged in, you could
get continuity through a path other than the fuse (for instance,
both sides of the wire may be grounded when you check the fuse).
You can usually tell if a fuse is blown by a visual inspection:
