Overview

A 1A slow-blow (time-delay) glass fuse in the common 5x20mm size, also called M205. A slow-blow fuse rides through the short surge a motor, transformer or power supply draws at switch-on, then opens on a sustained overload or short. Use it where the equipment calls for a T fuse, or where a fast fuse of the same rating keeps blowing at switch-on with no fault present. For electronics with no switch-on surge, the 1A fast-blow version opens quicker.

Wiring & getting started

  1. Check the size and rating

    Measure the old fuse: 20mm long and 5mm across is this size. Replace like with like: the same current, the same speed (T for slow, F for fast) and a voltage rating at least as high as the circuit.

  2. Slow or fast?

    Choose slow-blow for loads that surge at switch-on: motors, transformers and power supplies with big capacitors. Where the equipment specifies an F fuse, fit the fast version, because a slow fuse lets a fault run for longer.

  3. Fit it in a holder

    Use a 5x20mm fuse holder in the positive or active line, as close to the power source as you can. Turn the power off before changing a fuse.

  4. Checking a blown fuse

    A blown fuse has a broken wire or a darkened, smoky glass. A dark glass means a hard short, so find the fault before you fit a new one.

Note: Glass fuses suit electronics and low-voltage DC work. When replacing a fuse inside mains equipment, match the original exactly; if it was a ceramic or sand-filled fuse, use the same type, not glass.
