The 12 Amp fuse will take a larger current before it blows (or trips) - than a 10 Amp one.

∙ 7y agoThe concept of power does not apply to a fuse. Amperes measure current, which is not the same thing. A 12 A fuse will carry more current before it melts and breaks the circuit.

How much does of 1 amp of electricity cost?
It depends what your voltage is and how much your electricity costs. Assuming you are running standard residential voltage and your electricity costs 10 cents per kilowatt-hour. 1 Amp would cost you 1 cent per hour or 29 cents per day or $105 per year.
How many watts does a stereo have to have to run a 1500 watt amp?
My personal rule of thumb is that the amp should be at least 40% more powerful than the speaker(s) it's driving. So, if your sub is 1500W RMS, then mathematically, you'd need approximately a 2100W RMS amp. Some people just match it evenly - in that case you'd need a 1500W RMS amp. Whatever you do, DON'T use an amp less powerful than the speaker. If you do, you will probably kill the speaker in a short period of time. :(
Can a 15 amp extension cord be plugged into a 20 amp breaker?
A 15 Amp extension cord can be plugged into a 20 Amp circuit. It is important that what you're extending does not require more then 10-12 Amps.
What is the 16 gauge amp rating?
That is 10 amp wire.
Will a 15 amp use less electricity than a 10 amp overall?
No. You are billed for electricity by wattage per hour. The formula for watts is amps times volts. W = A x V. At a set voltage and using the formula you can see that if the amperage goes up so will the wattage value. Use 120 volts and multiply it by each of your amperages in the question.
What value of electricity would kill you?
.10 amp could be fatel, the higher the ampage the more likely. Ampage is determined by the voltage and the resistance. ampage= voltage/ resistance
Can you put a 30 amp fuse in a 10 amp slot?
Not a good thing to do! If you are blowing 10 amp fuses, you have a problem with that circuit. Putting a 30 amp fuse in its place can do more damage.
Can you replace a 15 amp fuse with a 10 amp?
Yes, but it may blow if the load draws more than 10 amps.

What size fuse for 12 amp electric mower?
12 amp more than likely. Hmmm... I'd start with a 10 amp but never higher than the rating...

What is louder sub on 300 watt amp 10'' 300 watt or 10'' 600 watt?
They can be as loud, as the amp is not delivering 600 watts. The 10" sub rated at 600 watts is able to withstand more power.
Can you replace a 5 amp fuse with a 10 amp?
No.
Can you put a 10 amp fuse in a 20 amp fuse slot?
If it is the right size, then yes. But why would you want to do that? if the slot is meant for a 20 amp fuse then most likely there will be more than 10 amps running through it and it will blow almost imediately
What size fuses are used in a 1970 Camaro?
5 amp,10 amp, 15 amp, 20 amp, 25 amp, and 30 amp.
