no you can burn up fuseable links blow stuff out completely. a fuse amp. is set as high as the device it is designed to protect. The thing it is protecting can't or should not take no more than that.Buy the right fuse it will save you alot of money down the road.

Is higher number in Fahrenheit colder than the lower number?
In Fahrenheit, higher numbers represent hotter temperatures.
What number is higher a quadrillion or a centillion?
go with centillion its way higher than quadrillion
What is the probability of rolling a number higher than 4?
There are six faces, and only three faces with a number higher than a four. So it is 3 chances in 6.
What is successor number?
In counting numbers, a sucessor number is the next higher number than the referenced number.
What is a number greater than 1 with more than 2 factors called?
it's called a composite number [ a number greater than 1 w/ more than two factors.]
Numbers higher than Qintillion?
alot a number called a zillion
What could happen if a blown fuse were replaced with one that blew at a much higher current than the original?
The circuit or device that the fuse was meant to protect would not be protected if a fuse with a higher rating were to be used. This could result in the circuit or device being destroyed by a higher than normal current flow in a short circuit fault condition.
Is it all right to use a fuse with a higher rating than specified?
No ( you can start a fire )
Why is it not okay to use a fuse with a higher amperage rating in an electrical circuit?
The fuse is supposed to be the weakest link in the circuit. The circuit is rated to handle a specific load current. The wire and insulation rating of the circuit is governed by this specific load. If this load malfunctions and the load current becomes higher that what is specified, the fuse is there to break the circuit. A fuse of a higher rating than what is called for will allow a higher current to flow through the circuit which could cause the insulation on the wire to melt, the wire to burn open or components in the circuit to become unusable. Never over fuse an electrical circuit with a larger amp rated fuse.
Low volt fuse to high volt fuse?
I'm not sure of your question here. If you are asking if you can replace a fuse with a fuse with a higher voltage rating, the answer is yes, but it probably won't fit in the same terminals. The voltage rating must be the same or higher than the voltage applied.
What size fuse does a model 6820 Oster blender use?
The fuse number is 5S5A125V. If you find a will fit it must be 125Volts and a 5 series.Never use a higher amperage fuse than the original. You can go up on the voltage of the fuse but not the amperage. The higher voltage rating on a fuse means that once blown it will not arc across the blown element at a higher voltage rating. Be sure to use a slow blow fuse as a fast acting fuse will blow quite frequently if the motor is under heavy load at start up. A comparable fuse is the Littlefuse 5A GDC Type 5 X 20mm Slo-Blo Fuse which is pretty common. Don't worry that it is rated at 250V as it is just a higher quality fuse and will still blow with 5A excessive current.
Are multiples higher or lower than the number?
Equal to and higher.
Is there a number higher than infinity?
No.
What is the higher factor out of 20 and 35?
35 is higher than 20. 20 has a higher number of factors than 35.
What is a higher number 80 or 11.5?
80 is higher than 11.5
Which number is higher 0.98 or 0.978?
0.98 is higher than 0.978
Which number is higher 3.12 or 3.123?
the number which is higher is 3.123 because 3.123 is 0.003 more than your other number
