Superficial burn produced by fusing electrical component (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

singe

'superficial burn' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'produced by fusing electrical component' is the wordplay.
'produced by' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue (the clue produces a copy of the answer).
'SINGE' is hidden in the letters of 'fusing electrical component'.

(Other definitions for singe that I've seen before include "Superficial burn" , "Char, scorch" , "Scorch lightly" , "Result of match accident" , "Lightly burn" .)
