What does it mean that the stock market is blown?

When the stock market drops by 5%, the fuse mechanism will be triggered, and trading will be suspended for 15 minutes. When the market drops by 7%, the fuse mechanism will be triggered for the second time, and trading will be suspended until the market closes.
