What is the difference in a 5 amp fuse and 6 amp fuse?

The main difference between a 5 amp fuse and a 6 amp fuse lies in their respective current-carrying capacities. A 5 amp fuse is designed to safely carry up to 5 amperes of current before breaking the circuit to protect the electrical components from damage due to overload. On the other hand, a 6 amp fuse can handle up to 6 amperes of current before breaking the circuit. Therefore, the 6 amp fuse has a slightly higher current rating and can tolerate a slightly higher load compared to the 5 amp fuse.
