NO! The circuit wiring is protected by that 3.15 amp fuse. Put a 5 amp fuse in the circuit and the wiring may overheat and cause a fire. Never over-fuse any circuit even in an emergency.
yes it can but it may not protect as well the f5L is a fast blow fuse made to react quickly to the overcurent
When a 250V, 2500W water heater is connected to a mains supply with a 5A fuse, the fuse will likely blow. This is because the heater draws approximately 10A (calculated by dividing the power, 2500W, by the voltage, 250V), which exceeds the 5A rating of the fuse. As a result, the fuse will interrupt the circuit to prevent overheating or damage, preventing the water heater from operating.
The 312 designation means that it is a 312 series fuse made by a company called Littelfuse. This is a series of fast acting, glass cartridge fuse. Knowing the series allows you to look up the exact specifications for the fuse at the company's website. The fuse would have a rating impressed into one if the steel caps that looks like: 250V 312 5A Indicating it is a 250 Volt, 5A fuse, and is a Littelfuse 312 series, which implies fast acting, specific performance specifications and its size (31.75+/- 1.12mm x 6.25 +/- 0.3mm).
The device will work, but the 3A fuse will blow quicker than the 5A would have.
You could on a temporary basis, but it would blow as soon as the aggregate current on the circuit reached 5A instead of 10A. Replacing a higher value fuse with a lower fuse is not a safety hazard, but the other way around would be a hazard if you replaced a 5A with a 10 A.
In the context of the T5ah250Vp fuse, the "p" typically stands for "Pico," which indicates a specific type of fuse designed for applications requiring precise protection. The "T" denotes the fuse's type, "5" indicates the current rating in amperes (5A), "ah" refers to the time-current characteristics, "250" signifies the voltage rating (250V), and "V" indicates that it is a voltage-rated fuse.

The fuse number is 5S5A125V. If you find a will fit it must be 125Volts and a 5 series.Never use a higher amperage fuse than the original. You can go up on the voltage of the fuse but not the amperage. The higher voltage rating on a fuse means that once blown it will not arc across the blown element at a higher voltage rating. Be sure to use a slow blow fuse as a fast acting fuse will blow quite frequently if the motor is under heavy load at start up. A comparable fuse is the Littlefuse 5A GDC Type 5 X 20mm Slo-Blo Fuse which is pretty common. Don't worry that it is rated at 250V as it is just a higher quality fuse and will still blow with 5A excessive current.
There is a 5A fuse #21 and 15A fuse #5.
