If a 10 ampere fuse blows constantly it should be replaced with 15 ampere fuse?
Most definetly not. If a ten amp fuse has been used to protect a circuit, then it has been rated by guidlines to be the most that that circuit can hold. If you put a 15 amp fuse in its place, you are effectively allowing more current to flow through the cables than it is rated for, which will lead to excessive heating in cables and possible fire. If your fuse is constantly blowing, it means there is most likely something wrong with the cables, like a short circuit. This is extremely dangerous. Call a qualified electrician to fix the problem
What is ampere rating of 16 gauge wire at 120 volts?
For a 16-gauge wire at 120 volts, the ampere rating would typically be around 10-12 amps. However, it's important to consult the specific standards and guidelines provided by regulatory bodies like the National Electrical Code (NEC) to ensure safe and appropriate usage of the wire.
Can I replace a 10 amp fuse with a 20 amp fuse in the AC?
No, you cannot replace a 10-amp fuse with a 20-amp fuse. Fuses are meant to guard your wiring and equipment by melting or 'blowing' before the wiring, itself, melts and causes a fire. It is safe to use a smaller fuse than called for, but never, ever is it safe to use a larger fuse than called for.
Can you use a 220V 20A fuse to replace a 125V 20A?
No, it is not safe to replace a 125V 20A fuse with a 220V 20A fuse. Fuses are designed to protect electrical circuits from overloading, and using a higher voltage fuse could lead to damage or fire hazards in the circuit. Always replace a fuse with the same voltage and amperage rating as the original.
Can you use a 1.5a 125V fuse to replace a 5a 125V fuse?
No, it is not safe to replace a 5A fuse with a 1.5A fuse. The fuse rating must match the current requirements of the circuit to avoid overheating and potential fire hazards. It is important to always replace a fuse with the same or higher current rating as specified by the manufacturer.
Can 250v 2.5A fuse replace a 250v 3.15A fuse?
No, it is not recommended to replace a 250V 3.15A fuse with a 250V 2.5A fuse. The replacement fuse should have the same voltage rating, but the amperage rating needs to be equal to or higher than the original fuse to ensure proper protection against overcurrent.
Can you replace a 7.5 fuse with a 5 or 10?
You cannot because a five amp fuse would blow because the original fuse was seven point five. and a ten amp fuse would not blow quick enough to save or even be safe to use it in whatever you are using it for.
Is it safe to connect 380 volts 3 phase supply to 220 volts 3 phase supply?
No.
What are the safe levels of direct current voltage?
60 Volts is generally considered a safe approximate maximum. In many applications that require 120 volts DC, the system will be center tapped so you have +60v and -60 volts so the hot to ground voltage is within safe limits.
Can you use 250V 3.15A fuse to replace a 250V 3A fuse?
It's best if you just make a policy of never replacing a fuse with anything larger. Engineers have calculated the maximum SAFE circuit draw on an electronic device, and you should not use a fuse that will not provide adequate protection to the circuit. It sounds like .15 amp difference shouldn't cause trouble, but it's not a good idea.
Can you use a 125V 15A fuse to replace a 250V 10A fuse?
No, it is not safe to replace a 250V 10A fuse with a 125V 15A fuse. The voltage rating of the fuse must be equal to or greater than the system voltage, and the amperage rating must be equal to or lower than the rated current of the circuit. Using a lower voltage or higher amperage fuse can lead to safety hazards, including potential fire risks.
Low volt fuse to high volt fuse?
I'm not sure of your question here. If you are asking if you can replace a fuse with a fuse with a higher voltage rating, the answer is yes, but it probably won't fit in the same terminals. The voltage rating must be the same or higher than the voltage applied.
