yes. the 250v just means that's the maximum voltage rating the fuse can handle .. so it can def handle 125v. just not vice versa.

Can you use a 125V 15A fuse to replace a 250V 10A fuse?
No, the voltage rating should not be exceeded. However, you could use a 250v 10a fuse for a 125v 10a fuse.
Can a 250V 2.5A fuse replace a 125V 2.5A fuse?
Yes, a 250V fuse can replace a 125V fuse if they have the same ampacity rating. The voltage rating is simply the maximum voltage that the fuse is capable of safely interrupting. You can go higher, but you can not go lower. Obviously, the form factor of the fuse must be the same, but that is often the case.
Can you use a 250v 15 amp fuse for a 125v 15 amp?
Use the correct fuse and nothing else.
Can you use a 250v 3a fuse to replace a 250v 3.15 fuse?
No
Can you use a 250v 3a fuse to replace a 125v 3a fuse for equipment voltage is 100volt?
Yes, fuses of a higher voltage can be used safely. What is not recommended is to use a lower voltage fuse on higher voltages.
Can you use 7amp 125V fuse replace 6.3amp 125V fuse?
no.. it could damage your electrical components.
Can 250v 2.5A fuse replace a 250v 3.15A fuse?
It may or may not. And because you are going to a smaller fuse than before, it is safe to try it.
Can you use a 1.5a 125V fuse to replace a 5a 125V fuse?
It depends on what you are powering with the circuit, but probably not. The 1.5 amp fuse would blow in normal operation of the device.
If a stereo says to put a 125v 8a fuse in it can it also hold a 250v 8a size fuse cylindrical?
Yes but it would be better to put in the right one as the biger fuse wil not protect the unit as well.
What is the difference between 125V 15A fuse and 230V 15A fuse?
The voltage rating of a fuse (in this case 125V or 230V) defines the maximum circuit voltage that the fuse is safe to be used on. A fuse with a voltage rating of 125V should not be used in a circuit with a voltage greater than 125V. If a 125V fuse were installed in a 230V circuit and an overload current occurred, the fuse could explode.
Is the f5l 250v fuse similar to f5a 250v and f5al 250v?
nope
Where can I buy a type CES 6 125v 15a fuse in north America like close to mtl qc Canada?
