I'm very confused about what fuse amperages I should use in what wattage vacuum motors, because I've read about start up surges causing the fuses to blow if too low.
My main question is; is it safe to rely on the old fashioned rule of 3AMP for under 700W and 13AMP for over 700W if your house has an RCD fitted ? If not, I'm going to be thoroughly confused come the day I have to work out what fuses to replace and with what... Oh my, I'm befuddled! |
