Aircraft fuses exist not to save the several hundred-thousand dollar avionics install, but specifically to protect the wire from melting, shorting, or starting fires where fire does not belong [1] (page 11-15, para. 11-51). This is relevant because fire also does not belong inside the walls of your home. I assume you're just having a laugh, but just in case others take you too seriously: wire is not a substitute for a fuse.
