Across
- 1. melts to prevent circuit overloads
- 4. allows electric charges to move freely
- 6. multiple paths for current
- 7. a switch that opens a circuit automatically when the current exceeds a certain value
- 9. rate in which charges move through a wire
- 10. pathway of electric charges
- 12. space around a charged particle
