Abstract
It is aimed to provide a fuse element capable of interrupting an electrical circuit while suppressing the formation of carbide when an abnormal current is generated. A fuse element 10 is provided with an insulating base material 3 and a conductor layer 1 provided on a surface of the base material 3. The conductor layer 1 is physically ruptured at a temperature lower than a temperature, at which the conductor layer 1 is fused and cut, when the conductor layer 1 is energized and generates heat.
