Recently a lot of my fuses have blown, and when I went to replace them, I noticed greasy residue in the circuits for holding the fuses. Is this normal? And if not, what is the problem? And, is there any safe way to clean them?

Depends a lot on what "the circuits" you refer to really are?

If you are talking about the fuse base and the copper slide connectors, rather than any "circuits" then it may be "Electrolube" or some other contact grease specifically designed to ensure the contacts slide and remove correctly.

I would be far more concerned as to why the fuses have blown!

I'm wondering what types of fuses and circuits you're talking about... fuses in your car, in your house, or...? If the car, are they the glass tube or plastic blade type (fuses under the hood typically have a dielectric grease applied to protect against corrosion)? If in the house, are they the old screw-in type?
