Are all auto fuses the same?

Not all car fuses are the same, and most cars have multiple fuses of varying sizes for different electrical components. When you are replacing a car fuse, it is essential to replace the blown fuse with a new one of the same type and size. You should also never replace a blown fuse with one of a higher amperage rating.

Can I use a 5A fuse instead of 3A?

If you replace it with a 5A fuse you will lose part of the protection the 3A fuse was intended to provide. In case of a failure of the device the fuse is suppose to protect, the result of using a larger fuse could be to damage the device to the extent that it could not be repaired. It could also start a fire.

Is it OK to use a 13amp fuse instead of a 10 amp?

If you replaced it with 13A fuse, it will allow current more than 10A, so it may possible that other components may get damage due excessive current flow than specified. If TV components can sustain up to 13 A current, you can replace it. You can put a smaller fuse in with the same “speed” rating.

Can I put a 30 amp fuse in a 20 amp slot?

While it may be physically and functionally possible to install said 30 amp breaker in place of a 20 amp breaker, it’s a pretty bad idea. If the load needs that much more current, you can replace the breaker, but you must also replace all the wire going from the breaker to that load and back.

How many watts can a 30 amp fuse handle?

7,200 watts

How many outlets can you put on a 20 amp breaker?

10 receptacles

How many breakers can go in a 60 amp subpanel?

If you have a 60 amp service you could probably put 2 20 amp breakers for outlets and 2 15 amp breakers for lights. If all 4 circuits are near max, your 60 amp main circuit breaker will trip. If you use 20 amp breakers, you need to use 12 ga. wire on each whole circuit.

What size wire do I need to run a 100 amp subpanel?

#4 copper wires

Is 30 amps enough for a garage?

Re: 30AMP service enough for my garage I would go for at least 50 Amp. Figgure if you have the lights on and run the shop vac when your compressor comes on you are in the dark.
