 When you disable a circuit, you blow the fuse until you enable the circuit again.
 
-The interaction rules for disables/enables is that they dominate every other command except the call to `remove/1`. That is, even reinstalling an already installed fuse will not reenable it. The only way is to either call `fuse:circuit_enable/1` or by first `fuse:remove/1`'ing the fuse and then executing an `install/1` command.
