Insufficient data. Current drawn depends on voltage applied and resistance/impedance of the load. You can't apply 5.5 Amps unless you do that from a current source (or from too high a voltage) and it's unlikely that you have one unless you are in an electrical/electronics lab and know what you are talking about.

On the other hand, if you manage to stuff 5.5 Amps through a device that is only rated at 5 Amps, then you are forcing too much power into it. It will be electrically stressed and it may (or may not) fail.

Back to first statement - insufficient data.
