An 18 A fuse in a household circuit burns out. If fuses of only 12 A or 25 A were available to replace it, which would be safer?The 12 A fuse would be safer, since it is lower than the 18 A original.The 25 A fuse would be safer, since it is large enough to handle 18 A. More information is needed. The 12 A fuse might be better because it is closer to the 18 A original or the 25 A might be better because it seems to have enough capacity.
