Can anyone enlighten me?

For the A330
Is there more than one fuse plug on a wheel?
How/where is "brake temperature" measured, and is it the mean temperature of the pads, or just at a certain spot?
If fuse plugs let go at a certain temperature, is it correct to say that generally, for the A330, this equals a pre defined amount of absorbed enery by the brakes, regardless of landing speed or weight?
