A 4-amp fuse.
A fuse doesn't 'power' an electrical plug. A fuse protects the load supplied by that plug.
A fuse is fitted to a plug as a safety feature.
The auxiliary plug fuse can be found in the fuse box. The location of the fuse can be found on the inside cover of the fuse box.
The fuse in a plug is designed to blow and cut off the current in a circuit before the rest of the wiring and components are damaged or burnt-out should a short-circuit occur.
Generally speaking the longest part of replacing a fuse is going to the store to buy a new one.In household appliances the only fuse a user should be replacing is the one in the plug top, and this should take at most 5 minutes.Remove the plug from the wall, unscrew the center screw from the plug top and open the plug.The fuse will be clearly visible. Use a screwdriver or something small to pop out the broken fuse. Replace with a fuse of the same rating. Replace the plug cover reinsert screw and your done.It should be noted that a blown/ broken fuse is usually (but not always) indicative of a problem in your device (sometimes fuses blow for no apparent reason). If this new fuse blows within a relatively short period of time it should be taken as confirmation of a problem with the normal working of the device and an electrician should be contacted.
No, fuse box fuses are of the screw in type. Plug in fuses are of a cartridge style that plug into the fuse holder which supports the fuse on either end of the cartridge.
no because then if it did you wouldn't have to plug it in.
In the UK, you cannot put a 5 amp fuse in a 3 amp plug. The general rule of thumb is that you should use like for like.
The fuse is a safety feature.
no theirs no fuse
It should be in the fuse box, it's a round silver or chrome plug in that just plugs into the fuse box.
