Fuse is used to protect against over load. The fuse blows off if there is overloading in the circuit. This prevents the flow of current in the circuit beyond the position of the fuse. The equipment which is overloaded in the circuit is thus saved.

What size fuse should be used for 2 amp power supply?

If the 2 amps is the output amperage of the power supply, the maximum that should be drawn from the unit is 2 amps. The load amperage that is connected to the power supply should govern the amperage of the fuse used. There is not much range there, the fusing could go from .25 to 2 amps. If the input amperage is 2 amps then the input and output voltage of the power supply should be stated.


If the power supply has blown what are chances that it has taken out the motherboard or something else?

Very unlikely. When a power supply "blows", a fuse is destroyed in the power supply. This is what the fuse was designed for. When a high voltage comes through, the fuse will burn out to prevent the surge from reaching the rest of the electronics. A surge protector does the same thing, but is better at catching voltage spikes than the power supply.
