Fuse wires are used to isolate the circuit when high current flows. If fuse wires are thick the area of cross section increases, resistance of fuse wire decreases. So, even if high current flows through the circuit, fuse doesn't blows out. Which means, it acts merely as a connecting wire and not a fuse wire.
