Fuse questions

(1/2) > >>

RayB:
If the specs call for an 8A slowblow, can I get away with using a fastblow?

Or, could I use a 7A slowblow??

As you might guess, I couldn't find 8A SB

Q*Bert_OP:
Fast blow can be substituted in place of slow blow, but not the other way around. Also, you can put in a lower rated fuse, but not the other way around. The only downside is doing either or both can cause the improper value fuse to blow prematurely, possibly with out any circuit problems.

smartbomb2084:
NAILS for FUSES ?!?!?!?!

Is that the extent of your troubleshooting skills?

What happened to: "Circuit boards are fragile and expensive. I only change the parts that are bad."?

Don't let this clown within twenty miles of your machines!

Q*Bert_OP:
A 22 cal bullet also works as a fuse...it'll also tell you when it blows...  :duckhunt

Thought you guys might enjoy the other use I've found for soldering irons - ground pin modification on extension cords.
