A domestic circuit has a $30\,\text{A}$ fuse fitted. It safeguards the wiring when the current in the circuit becomes too large. In which wire is the $30\,\text{A}$ fuse placed, and what happens to it when it operates?

  • Alive wire; disconnects the circuit
  • Blive wire; reduces the current to $30\,\text{A}$
  • Cneutral wire; disconnects the circuit
  • Dneutral wire; reduces the current to $30\,\text{A}$
