What else can I help you with?
Why are car fuses different colors?
for easier visual identification Each color is a different amp rating.
What do the difernt colour mean on blade or ceramic type fuses and circuit breakers?
Each color identifies the amp rating, yellow=20 amp, blue=15 amp and so on.
Do electric fires take thirteen amp fuses?
No, electric fires typically require a higher fuse rating due to their power consumption. They usually take 15-amp or 20-amp fuses to handle the load safely. Please check the manufacturer's instructions or labeling on the appliance to confirm the correct fuse rating needed.
What causes blower motor to melt fuses?
blower moter coil windings shorted, motor spinning too slow than normal (increase current draw), short circuit in wiring, excessive amp or current draw in blower circuit than what is protected by amp rating fuse for that circuit. maybe even having too many loads (electrical devices on at once) especially if all these devices are connected in a parallel circuit and power is bridged.
Does attaching batteries in parallel increase their amp hours?
Yes, it does. I you have N batteries in parallel each batter supplies 1/Nth of the total current to the system. So basically each battery (and therefore the entire system) will supply power to the load N timers longer. Amp hours = Amp*hours, so if you multiply hours by N you multiply your Amp hour rating by N. Hope this helps. p.s. Amp hours do NOT add in series... basically because 1 Amp*hour = 3600 coulombs and it represents how much charge flows from the batter.
What is the maximum amp rating for a device that is designed to handle a 10-2 amp rating?
The maximum amp rating for a device designed to handle a 10-2 amp rating is 10 amps.
As you add more lamps to a parallel circuit what will the ammeter reading do?
If the amp meter is in series ahead of the first parallel branch of lamps the meter will read an increase in current.
Can I use a 15 amp outlet on a 20 amp circuit?
Yes, you can use a 15 amp outlet on a 20 amp circuit. The outlet's amp rating should not exceed the circuit's amp rating.
What are the amps of the interior fuses on a 1992 explorer?
It is on the fuses. eg: 10 = 10 amp, 7.5= 71/2 amp fuse
To construct a battery with a current of 6 amps you would connect six 1 amps cells?
You would connect them in parallel to increase the amerage. If you connect them in series it would increase the voltage. Connected in series-parallel would increase both voltage and amerage.
What if you use 20 amp instead of 15 amp fuse with the same 250 volts in microwave?
In most cases the size of a fuse is not critical and so changing from 15 to 20 amp will not effect anything - BUT the function of a fuse is to destroy itself before some more expensive component gets destroyed by too high a current flow. As you raise the current rating of your fuses you increase the chances of negating their function,
What size fuses are used in a 1970 Camaro?
5 amp,10 amp, 15 amp, 20 amp, 25 amp, and 30 amp.
