question about car stereos....
    #5972476 - 08/17/06 10:42 AM (17 years, 5 months ago)

OK, so i needed some fuses for the powerlines in my car stereo, i originally had 80amp fuses, but my alternator from 1965 only puts out 37amps, well, probably more like 25 amps now. Anyways, so instead of blowing my alternator, i just put in some 15amp fuses, so that they would blow before my alt does. But the fuses i found are 15amp 250 VAC, and are time delay (probably doesnt matter on the power lines, that it's time delay that is). does the fact that this fuse is for AC current effect the 15amp part? or will it still blow out at 15amp on a 12v DC circuit. thanks.

Check your fuses and see what the DC rating is(if there is one).

By no means am I an expert here, but I can think of one thing that may be no good. AC circuits alternate(no, I swear lol). When a fuse blows and that current reverses it will hit zero and allow any arc to extinguish. This is not always the case with DC as it is direct.

If you're in doubt go to an automotive store and pick up a fuse, or breaker, appropriate for your application.
