    Once the second fuse has burned out, 30 seconds have elapsed, and there are 30 seconds of burn time left on the first fuse. Light the other end of the first fuse. Once the first fuse burns out, 45 seconds have elapsed. Many other variations are possible, in some cases using fuses that burn for different amounts of time from each other. [5]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuse_(electrical)

    A time-delay fuse (also known as an anti-surge or slow-blow fuse) is designed to allow a current which is above the rated value of the fuse to flow for a short period of time without the fuse blowing. These types of fuse are used on equipment such as motors, which can draw larger than normal currents for up to several seconds while coming up to ...
