【 摘 要 】
Fuse is an important component of an electrical circuit to limiting the current through the electrical circuit for electrical equipment safety. Safety fuses are made of a conductor such as copper and nichrome wires. The aim of this research was to determine the maximum current that can flow in the conductor wires (copper and nichrome). In the experiment used copper and nichrome wires by varying the length of wires (0.2 cm to 20 cm) and diameter of wires (0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4 and 0.5) mm until maximum current reached that marked by melted or broken wire. From this experiment, it will be obtained the dependences data of maximum current to the length and diameter of wires. All data are plotted and it's known as a standard curve. The standard curve will provide an alternative choice of replacing fuse wire according to the maximum current requirement, including the wire type (copper and nichrome wires) and wire dimensions (length and diameter of wire).
