# 10 wire is rated at 30 amps. Code states the the wire is only to be loaded to 80%. 80% of 30 = 24 amps. If distance is a factor then the resistance of the wire comes into play. Go up one size to #8 rated at 40 amps, usable 32 amps.

Can a 25 amp fuse replace a 30 amp fuse in a central ac unit?

It is not recommended to replace a 30 amp fuse with a 25 amp fuse in a central AC unit. The fuse should match the specified amperage requirements to prevent damage or overheating of the unit. Using a lower amp fuse could potentially lead to electrical issues or failure of the AC unit.


Can you replace a 20 amp fuse in your car with a 25 amp due to the fuse keep blowing?

Yes you can but you are setting yourself up for a big problem. There is a reason the 20 amp fuse is blowing. By installing a bigger fuse it allows the current that is causing the 20 amp fuse to blow to stay in for a longer period of time. This can cause excessive heating and melting of the wires on the circuit that is blowing on a 20 amp fuse. Trace the wire and find the fault. Always use the manufacturer's recommended fuse sizing for your own protection.


Is a fuse rated 8 volt 25 amps equal to a 8 volt 250 mp fuse?

No, a 250-Amp fuse would be much larger than a 25-amp fuse. A fuse is generally designed to have a thermal runaway and melt the connection when there is too much current for too long.

A 13 Amp fuse (brown) is needed for a 3kw heater. <<>> Answer for USA, Canada and countries running a 60 Hz power supply service. 3000 watts at 120 volts = 25 amps, 3000 watts at 240 volts = 12.5 amps.


If a 120 volt current is protected by a 25 amp circuit breaker What is the largest number of watts an appliance can safely use?

The largest number of watts an appliance can safely use on a 120V circuit protected by a 25A breaker is 3000 watts. You calculate this by multiplying the voltage (120V) by the amperage (25A). This gives you a maximum power capacity of 3000 watts on this circuit.
