15A vs 8/15A Fußes

#1 Post by Jurgen Amtmann »

Does anyone know the difference between the red 15A Fuses and the red 8/15A Fuses? Are all red fuses 8A slow blow, 15A fast blow? Or do they have to be labeled 8/15? Jürgen

I think its the amount of power they will pass. At either 6V or 12V since they are used on both. one value is 12Volts the other is 6 volts 8amps x 12volts =96W and then at 6volts 15amps x6volts=90W the power is about equal.
