Can a 3.15A 250v fuse be replaced with a 5A 250v fuse?

NO! The circuit wiring is protected by that 3.15 amp fuse. Put a 5 amp fuse in the circuit and the wiring may overheat and cause a fire. Never over-fuse any circuit even in an emergency.


What does 312 mean on a fuse?

The 312 designation means that it is a 312 series fuse made by a company called Littelfuse. This is a series of fast acting, glass cartridge fuse. Knowing the series allows you to look up the exact specifications for the fuse at the company's website. The fuse would have a rating impressed into one if the steel caps that looks like: 250V 312 5A Indicating it is a 250 Volt, 5A fuse, and is a Littelfuse 312 series, which implies fast acting, specific performance specifications and its size (31.75+/- 1.12mm x 6.25 +/- 0.3mm).

What size fuse does a model 6820 Oster blender use?

The fuse number is 5S5A125V. If you find a will fit it must be 125Volts and a 5 series.Never use a higher amperage fuse than the original. You can go up on the voltage of the fuse but not the amperage. The higher voltage rating on a fuse means that once blown it will not arc across the blown element at a higher voltage rating. Be sure to use a slow blow fuse as a fast acting fuse will blow quite frequently if the motor is under heavy load at start up. A comparable fuse is the Littlefuse 5A GDC Type 5 X 20mm Slo-Blo Fuse which is pretty common. Don't worry that it is rated at 250V as it is just a higher quality fuse and will still blow with 5A excessive current.
