Fused Relay

[Oldie]

Here's another dumb question from me.
I know absolutely nothing about auto electrics, I can change a fuse and do some minor stuff if someone draws a picture in crayon haha
So please tell me, what does a "Fused Relay" actually do ?
Cheers

Normally it is a relay with a fuse holder built into it. It saves having to fit a fuse somewhere between the power source and the relay or the device being powered. It is simply moulded into the relay casing so it is all one unit.

Yep, a relay allows you to switch large current with small current. A fused relay as we would likely use on our vehicles usually has a regular normal blade fuse sticking out the top which is way handier than wiring one in seperate.
Do a google, there would be plenty on it.
