The device will work, but the 3A fuse will blow quicker than the 5A would have.

What value of fuse that can replace a blown 4A fuse?

You could replace it with a 3A fuse. You should never replace a fuse with one which is rated higher.


What would happen if you put a 3A fuse in for kettle which is 13A?

The fuse will blow as soon as you turn it on. Use the correct fuse and nothing else.


Can you use a 250v 3a fuse to replace a 250v 3.15 fuse?

No


Can you use a 250v 3a fuse to replace a 125v 3a fuse for equipment voltage is 100volt?

Yes, fuses of a higher voltage can be used safely. What is not recommended is to use a lower voltage fuse on higher voltages.


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.


Can you fit a 13 amp fuse with a 3 amp fuse?

If you do that the likelihood is that you will blow the 3A fuse quickly. There is a reason why the current fuse is what it is, because it is expecting currents around 80% of 13 A or around 10 A.


What is the normal fuse for 60W lamp?

For a 60W lamp, a normal fuse rating would be around 3A. This is calculated using the formula P = V x I, where P is power, V is voltage, and I is current. So for a 60W lamp on a 120V circuit, you would use a 3A fuse to safely handle the power load.


What minimum fuse rating is needed for a 12volt curcuit with a 36 watt bulb?

To calculate the minimum fuse rating needed for a 36W bulb on a 12V circuit, divide the wattage by the voltage (36W / 12V = 3A). Therefore, a minimum 3A fuse would be sufficient for a 36W bulb on a 12V circuit.


What is 3a² 3a²?

3a^2 + 3a^2 = 6a^2 3a^2 - 3a^2 = 0 3a^2 x 3a^2 = 9a^4 3a^2 divided by 3a^2 = 1


What is a plus 3a-2 plus 3a simplified?

7a minus 2, if "3a-2" means 3a minus 2. 3a plus 1 and 1-3rd in parenthesis times 3a, if "3a-2" means 3a squared. a plus 3a squared plus 3a = 1-3rd times 3a plus 3a times 3a plus 1 times 3a = 3a plus 1 and 1-3rd in parenthesis times 3a


What is the answer in 4a 29 - 3a - a 3a?

If you mean: 4a +29 -3a -a +3a then it simplifies to 29 +3a


Can you use 250V 3.15A fuse to replace a 250V 3A fuse?

No, it is not recommended to use a 3.15A fuse to replace a 3A fuse. The 3.15A fuse has a higher current rating and may not provide adequate protection for the circuit. It is best to replace a fuse with the same current rating to ensure proper circuit protection.
