Yes. You put a bigger fuse and you will melt the wire and cause a fire hazard.
You could on a temporary basis, but it would blow as soon as the aggregate current on the circuit reached 5A instead of 10A. Replacing a higher value fuse with a lower fuse is not a safety hazard, but the other way around would be a hazard if you replaced a 5A with a 10 A.

No, you should not replace a 5 amp fuse with a 10 amp fuse in your heating and AC unit. The fuse is designed to protect the system from overcurrent; using a higher-rated fuse can allow excessive current to flow, potentially damaging the unit or causing a fire hazard. Always replace fuses with the correct amperage as specified by the manufacturer.
no you can't
absolutely not
No.
You don't it is a 100 amp fuse.
You could replace it with a 3A fuse. You should never replace a fuse with one which is rated higher.
Any electrical engineer, electrician, fireman or anyone else who understands the function of a fuse will advise strongly that you NEVER replace a fuse with one of a higher amperage rating.Fuses protect wires from overheating. The original fuse is matched to the capacity of the wires and other components of a circuit. When a properly matched fuse is replaced with a fuse of larger capacity you place your home, office, automobile or other property in jeopardy. The risk of a fire becomes very high when you use an over-sized fuse.If you have any questions, consult with a competent electrician or electrical engineer.
NO! Using a larger amp fuse defeats the purpose of the fuse to protect the wiring in the circuit. This can cause a fire. Always use the correct amp fuse for that circuit.

no you cannot, it is dangerous, you need to have a 20 amp service installed in order to do that. hope i helped
