Assuming the wiring is sized for 12 amps, you can replace your fuse with any 12 amp fuse or smaller and with a voltage rating at or above what you expect to connect to it.
The amp rating protects the wire, so you cannot go above what the wire can handle. The voltage rating is the max voltage that it can safely protect, so you cannot use a fuse with a lower voltage rating than you expect to connect to.

What alternate fuse can I use to replace a 6.3 amp 125 volt slow blow fuse?
a 6.3 amp 125 volt fuse a 6.3 amp 250 volt or 300 volt is fine with similar time delays depending on application it may be easier to find a 10A it should still protect most of the components
Can I use a 10 amp 125 volt power cord on my computer's 6 amp 125 volt input?
Sure
Can you replace a 7 amp 125 volt fuse with a 6 amp 125 volt fuse?
I think in most applications the difference between 6.3 amps and 7 amps is meaningless. However, if your equipment calls for 6.3 amp protection, 7 amps may allow your equipment to burn up before the fuse blows.
Can you plug in a 125 volt 30 amp plug in a 120 volt 30 amp outlet?
If the plug fits you are good to go. The typical range of residential voltage is from 110 to 125 VAC. You are fine within this range.
Will it work if you replace a 1.25 amp 125 volt fuse with a 1 amp 250 volt fuse?
Yes you can do that as long as it will fit in the fuseholder. It is acceptable to replace a lower Voltage Rated fuse with a higher but NEVER replace a higher with a lower. There are several things to consider when replacing a fuse: 1) The minimum voltage rating of the fuse is equal to or higher than the voltage of the circuit you are placing it in 2) The Amperage rating of the fuse does not exceed the capacity of the circuit you are trying to protect. Always replace a fuse with one that has the same amperage rating. 3) The interrupting rating of the fuse is sufficent for the capacity of the circuit supplying the fuse. If replacing a fuse always use one with an interrupting capacity equal to or greater than the fuse you are replacing.

Can you sub a 250 volt 1.5 amp fuse in place of a 125 volt 3 amp fuse?
Yes, you can substitute a 250 volt fuse in place of a 125 volt fuse. You just can't go the other way around. As far as 1.5 amperes in place of 3 amperes, well, you've got a problem there because the fuse will blow at about 1.5 amperes instead of 3 amperes, so the intended load will not be met. All of this, of course, assumes that the physical size of the fuse is the same. Bottom line is never substitute fuses.
For what purpose is a 5s5a125v fuse use on a RCA stereo RS2664?
The 5S3.5A125V is a 3.5 Amp 125 Volt fuse which are for the red and black output on the back. and the 5S5A125V is a 5 Amp 125 volt and uses the purple and black side which is also the side the subs on so if you dont have both of each fuses your music will not sound as good
Can you convert an old 15 amp 125 volt electrical outlet to a household electrical outlet?
A 15 amp 125 volt outlet is a household outlet.
Can you plug a 120 Volt 30 Amp tanning bed into a 125 Volt 30 Amp outlet?
yes
Can you replace a 7 amp 125 volt power cord with a 3 amp 125 volt power cord?
If the device you are powering requires 7 amps of power, then no. You will need to find a replacement cord with 7 amps. Check the power input requirements of the device to find out.
What amp is the yellow fuse?
20 amp on a 12 volt system
Can you use a 20 amp 250 volt receptacle in place of 20 amp 125 volt?
Electrically yes it is safe but the pin configuration will be different.
Is 15 amp of 125 ac volt is equal to 15 amp 12 dc volt?
No. At 125 volts, the same 15 amp current results in 10 times as much power. Ohm's Law states that amps x volts = power.
Can you plug in a 125 volt 30 amp plug in a 120 volt 30 amp outlet?
If the plug fits you are good to go. The typical range of residential voltage is from 110 to 125 VAC. You are fine within this range.
