There will be a wire on the back of your head unit that turns the amp on. It will be marked something like "rem" "remote" or "amp." If not, consult your head unit manual.

What is the voltage of the rem wire on a car amp?

The rem (remote) wire on a car amplifier typically carries a voltage of around 12 volts. This wire is used to turn the amplifier on and off, sending a signal from the head unit (stereo) to activate the amp when the car is turned on. When the ignition is in the "on" or "accessory" position, the rem wire should receive a voltage close to the battery voltage, usually around 12-14 volts.

If your fuse box supports 20 amp fuses can you replace one current 15 amp fuse with a 20 amp fuse?

The purpose of a fuse it to protect the wire that goes to the load. A 15 amp fuse protects a #14 gauge wire. A 20 amp fuse protects a #12 gauge wire. To answer your question if the wire size is #12 coming from the 15 amp fuse now then it can be upped to 20 amp fuse. If it isn't then you are taking the risk of overloading the #14 wire with a 20 amp fuse. This can lead to insulation failure of the #14 wire, overheating with the possible outcome of a fire breaking out somewhere in the circuit.
