What does the number mean on a car fuse?

The number on a car fuse refers to the Ampage of that fuse , each electrical component on any car has its own or shared fuse with a certain Amp rating, they are normally colour coded too and are to be replaced with one of the same Amp rating for protection.


Does using a higher amperage fuse use more power in a central air system?

You should never use a higher fuse rating than the wire size permits. If there were some fault in your central air that caused more current to flow than the rating of the wire, you could cause a fire.

What happens if you use a fuse that's overrated for voltage but has the correct current rating?

Using a fuse correctly rated for current but "overrated" for voltage does not present a problem. Current ratings are critical safety issues, and fuses should be replaced with those of the same current rating. But using a fuse with an identical current rating but a higher voltage rating is not a problem. The reason for that lies in what the voltage rating of a fuse is. Fuses are given a voltage rating to state a maximum voltage in a circuit that they are designed to protect. And the voltage rating has nothing to do with the "normal" operation of the fuse. The fuse carries current when it operates normally, but when something happens and excessive current flows, the fusible link heats up and opens. This is where the voltage rating comes into play. It is possible that a fuse can arc through when it fails. It is the voltage rating that stands in the way of this. As long as the voltage rating of a circuit is not beyond the voltage rating of the fuse, that fuse will fail safely when it fails. It is acceptable to use a fuse of an equal current rating but a higher voltage rating when replacing a fuse that has failed.

What is meant by ratting of fuse?

A fuse is given a various rating (strength). For instance, a home appliance (washing machine, etc) would usually have a fuse with a 13 amp rating. While a low powered lamp would only merit a 2 or 5 amp fuse rating. It is important to use a fuse of the correct rating in amps for each electrical appliance.


How is the minimum fusing current related to the current rating of a fuse?

Each fuse has its own rating. It will be marked on the fuse somewhere.
