Here are some reasons why the fuse has blown: * The unit's compressor pump has seized-up or failed in some other way, so is overloading the motor and that has made the fuse blow

* The unit's motor has developed a fault, such as a shorted winding, which makes it take too much current and that has made the fuse blow To be able to investigate either of those reasons you would need to call a Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) technician to use his test instruments, tools - and experience - to diagnose the problem and advise you what can be done to fix it.

What do you think would happen if you put a 3A fuse in a plug used for kettle?

I know what would happen. The three amp fuse would blow. Any device that is plugged into a receptacle with out having sufficient resistance to limit the current flow will dead short the circuit and cause the breaker that feeds the circuit to trip. In this case the fuse being of a lower rating that the feed breaker the fuse will blow without tripping the receptacle's feed breaker.


What do the letters in T 6.3 A L 250V stand for?

T means Slow blow , 6.3A is the maximum current this fuse will conduct , any more and the fuse will heat up and melt the conductor . Maximum voltage capacity is 250V , this means the maximum voltage that the fuse can block from "jumping" . It means you can use it in a system from 0 - 250V with a maximum current handle of 6.3A .


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.


What will happen to an appliance if the fuse rating is less than the current an appliance needed?

If the fuse rating is less than the current an appliance needs, the fuse will likely blow or burn out. This is because the fuse is designed to protect the appliance from overheating or catching fire by interrupting the circuit when the current exceeds the fuse rating. It is important to always use a fuse with a rating that matches the current requirements of the appliance.


What happen when a fuse wire of 100 ampere is used when a circuit at home draws a maximum current of 20 ampere?

The fuse or breaker should be no bigger than specified for the wiring and devices on the circuit. Your nominal current draw may be 20 amps, but a short circuit would cause maximum current to flow which in this case would be 100 amps until the fuse blew.

Not necessarily. It can blow because the circuit was overloaded and pulling too much current. That would cause the fuse to overheat and blow.
