Explain the difference between a fuse and a circuit breaker. If you were designing a circuit for a reading lamp, would you include a fuse, a circuit breaker, or neither? Explain your answer.

The difference between a fuse and a circuit breaker is that a fuse is a one time circuit element while a circuit breaker is a multiple use device. If you were designing a circuit for a reading lamp, you should include a circuit breaker so you don't have to replace it every time.
