It can cause a fire. The circuit is protected by the 5 amp fuse. This fuse is protecting the wiring in the circuit from overheating and catching fire. Install a 10 amp fuse and the protection is lost. Very dangerous to substitute a larger fuse.

Colours of BS1362 fuses 3amp 5amp 7amp 10amp 13amp?
BS1362 3A fuses are colured red, and 13A are coloured brown. All other current ratings are considered "non standard" and are colured black. 5A is the most common but I've seen 1A, 2A 7A and 10A also available. My recommendation is that you use the lowest value you can get away with for you applicance.
