Hi,
I don't recommend to playing around with parts that are not meant to use this way.
A fuse is a safety device. It is meant to give more safety than without.
A simple resistor is not meant to burn. One does not know "when" it burns, not in temperature, not at which current, not at which time.
All this is specified or regulated with a fuse or a fusable resistor.
A standard resistor when slightly overpowered will overheat, how much is unknown, maybe the solder melts, maybe not, maybe your PCB material burns, maybe not, maybe the resistor catches fire, maybe not.
When the resistor eventually burnt open, then there is high voltage across the resistor...how does the resistor react? Still burn, arcing?
With a fuse you know (it is specified) that it will not overheat, it won't hurt the PCB, it won't catch fire, it will get open to withstand a certain voltage. But you need a relatively big resistor for a "Maximum Applicable Voltage after Fusing" of 220V.
Be sure your "fuse" increases safety, not decreases safety...or creates new risks.
Feel responsible for others lives and others belongings.
