If it fits it ships

 

It depending on type of fuse it is in there.

what kind of load it is serving there?

 

Down fusing is permitted.

However, you just hardly ever run across this situation.

 

Ibtl!

 

It may not fit. I tried to replace one once and the 15 wouldn't make contact where the 20 would.

 

edison base are easily interchangeable, that's why they came up with the "S" type. they made it harder to interchange.

 

Lol, I remember working around the outside of those with a pocket knife then pulling out the threaded part with the fuse.
Then you have to put your knife under the that straight spring while backing it out.
All of that only to stick a screwdriver in the socket to tighten the screw connecting it to the bus.
Then screwing in an Edison base fuse.
$36 for the service call, $2.50 for the fuse.

I remember going from $36 to 37.50, then 39. Once we jumped to $42 per hour and thought we would lose all of our customers.

Those were good days.

 

Are you talking residential type fuse or control fuses etc? Are you using the same class fuse? Same SCCR? Same voltage rating?

 

I'm talking about residential fuse, type TL.

 

'TL' so a basic Edison type fuse!

Exacty what type of 'electrical engineering' do you do?

 

I wouldn't expect an EE (especially a young one) to have much knowledge of Edison fuses. That's for us old fart electricians lol. :yes:
