[QUOTE="SPECIAL LOCATION, post: 506791, member: 250"] Fuses are in circuits there to protect the cables from damage in the event of a fault... Putting a larger rating fuse in, will just increase the probability of the cable(s) being damaged... Most circuits are already designed and installed with the highest fuse rating for the cable sized fitted.. As there is no financial logic to installing more expense larger cables if the expected load and fuse rating doesn't require it. [/QUOTE]
