Electrical fuse panels have become obsolete as they no longer meet today’s electrical standards/requirements. Houses now require more power to feed appliances, air conditioning system and technical devices. When you plug in too many devices on one circuit, the fuse becomes overheated and blows. By using a large amp fuse (20 – 30 amps), you may stop the problem of fuse blowing however, the wire is only rated to carry 15 amps.

By using the larger fuse, the wire becomes overheated as it is working beyond capacity. These overheated wires are running through wood studs in the walls. The potential for fire now exists.
