Abstract
The cause of unstable behavior of a parallel fuse used as an opening switch is experimentally investigated by changing the shape of one of the parallel fuses. When instability exists in the behavior of parallel fuses, flaws on the surface of a wire are a critical factor which triggers the unstable behavior
