The STC is computer controlled and affects both the brakes and throttle control. There is no single fuse.

I like it on my new car, a small warning sign appears on the dash when I accellerate too hard in the ice/snow. It first decreases the throttle and then uses the brakes if spin is detected.

It will not wear out the brakes prematurely, because it is not always using the brakes. Unless you like to spin on the ice and have a large lake to do it on, I suggest you let the computer help keep the car under control.
