This is an in-depth fuse tutorial explaining everything you need to know about fuses and how to size a fuse.A typical identification plate which can be found on the base of the kettle could show the following information 220–240 Volts – 50 Hz 1850 to 2200 Watts the ID plate shows that this is a kettle that is suitable for Europe 220 V (1850 Watts) and the UK 240 Volts (2200 Watts). Will this cause any problems (like short circuiting the houses fuse box instead of merely blowing the fuse in the unit) or be dangerous? I had to unplug the van and remove the bulb from the outside lamppost before I could put a fresh fuse in and not have it blow. p>

The user is cautioned to seek competent engineering assistance in the use of this calculator and application of results generated by it. The speed rating indicates how quickly the fuse will blow in response to excess current; a more sensitive fuse is a safer option.Overloading one of these becomes apparent when the total amperage of the appliances plugged in exceeds the 13 amp in this extension lead. I think that concept is also the basis for the USCG fusing requirements, although that could be incorrect.

Fuses normally display their amp ratings on the top so this should be clearly visible once you open the fuse box.
