In a standard fuse rating system, the "5A" designation indicates a 5-ampere current rating. This means that the fuse is designed to safely carry a maximum current of 5 amperes before it will blow and interrupt the circuit. It is important to select a fuse with the appropriate ampere rating to protect the circuit from overcurrent conditions.

What does the value of a fuse mean?

The value of a fuse shows how many volts of electicity it will allow to pass through until it cuts out. For example a fuse saying 5A will allow anything up to 5A to pass through but if any more than that flows into it, the fuse will cut out.

What happens when a 250V 2500W water heater is connected to mains supply with a 5A fuse?

When a 250V, 2500W water heater is connected to a mains supply with a 5A fuse, the fuse will likely blow. This is because the heater draws approximately 10A (calculated by dividing the power, 2500W, by the voltage, 250V), which exceeds the 5A rating of the fuse. As a result, the fuse will interrupt the circuit to prevent overheating or damage, preventing the water heater from operating.

Can a 10a fuse replace a 5a fuse?

No, a 10A fuse should not replace a 5A fuse. Fuses are designed to protect circuits by breaking the connection when the current exceeds a specified limit; using a higher-rated fuse can allow too much current to flow, potentially damaging the circuit or causing a fire. Always replace a fuse with one that matches the original rating for safety.

What fuse do use to fix the heater?

depends on your car look at the fuse box cover. locate the blown fuse on the diagram and there should be some numbers e.g. 5A, 10A, 15A, or 20A. once you have this go to your local car store and by a 5A or whatever fuse. even better... take the blown one out and take it in to the store...
