Yes, you can use a 13 amp fuse for a table lamp, but it is usually not necessary or recommended. Most table lamps are designed to operate with a lower fuse rating, typically 3 to 5 amps, which provides adequate protection for the lamp's wiring and components. Using a higher-rated fuse may not trip in case of a fault, increasing the risk of fire or damage. Always check the manufacturer's specifications for the appropriate fuse rating.

Can you use a 5 amp fuse instead of a 4 amp fuse in a lamp?

Yes, you can use a 5 amp fuse instead of a 4 amp fuse in a lamp, but it is not recommended. The purpose of a fuse is to protect the circuit by breaking the connection if the current exceeds a specific limit. Using a higher-rated fuse may allow excessive current to flow, which can lead to overheating, potential damage to the lamp, or even fire hazards. It's always best to use a fuse that matches the recommended rating for safety.

What amp fuse wire do i need for a table lamp with 60wt bulb?

For a table lamp with a 60-watt bulb, you typically need a fuse rated for about 3 amps. This is because the wattage of the bulb can be converted to amperage using the formula: Amps = Watts/Voltage. Assuming standard household voltage of 120V, a 60-watt bulb would draw about 0.5 amps, so a 3-amp fuse provides adequate protection without being too restrictive. Always ensure your lamp's wiring and components are rated for the intended use.

What is meant by ratting of fuse?

A fuse is given a various rating (strength). For instance, a home appliance (washing machine, etc) would usually have a fuse with a 13 amp rating. While a low powered lamp would only merit a 2 or 5 amp fuse rating. It is important to use a fuse of the correct rating in amps for each electrical appliance.
