You can stop assuming the 32V fuses will work, because they definitely will. One good characteristic of Jcase fuses is their ability to handle large in rush currents. I think the lowest is rated at 20A, so they are used primarily for "larger loads" in the automotive sense. Things that come to mind are power windows, stater solenoids, ABS motors, emission air pumps...etc. So for you, Bob, I would think anything that requires more than a 15 Amp fuse. Its really up to you how you want to wire it up. If you flip the lid over, does it give you an idea of what the cartridge fuses were used for?
I'm willing to accept when I'm wrong. http://www.interfacebus.com/fuse-operation-ac-dc-voltages.html I was referring to the LOAD though and not the fuse, but I wasn't really very clear.
Since you first mentioned it, I'm finding that same answer while trying to learn more about these fuses on the web I was thinking maybe my electric fuel pump or my tilt front end actuators but I would have to check their specs before deciding[/QUOTE] It just gives numbers for each fuse/relay bay - I don't know exactly what year truck this came from so I don't have an owner's manual noting what accessories are covered under what bay
I do appreciate everyone's input as this technical fuse math is way over my head - I do read every response and just try to formulate a "bottom line" on what it is that I can do or not :Handshake
I in no way meant disrespect. And I hope I am not confusing people. Just trying to help out, my bad. Fuses have voltage ratings, you are absolutely correct. But it has more to do with sensitivity to arcing, not current flow.
I originally was lead to believe this fuse box came from under hood of a Ford Truck but I searched the part number, looking for a fuse diagram, and found it to have come from a 2003 to 2006 Lincoln and it is a trunk fuse box (no wonder it's so clean) - now to find a diagram
I know, and in fact I tend to think more in the low voltage range of fuses and forget that once your out of the 5v and under range you have a lot more flexibility as long as you are under the rated voltage.
If you can figure out a Model, I can get the diagram for you real quick. *EDIT* Looks like it is for a Lincoln LS.
I think I found the answer about the same time that you posted your links - it is indeed from a 2004 Lincoln LS Your first link shows a diagram of this exact box - the second link you provided has the fuse list but the fuses don't quite match, by amperage, what is already in my box - what I can do is go by fuse requirements by accessory description and design my slots into any order that I want them to be - at least this chart give me some of that information Thanks, Rusty :Handshake Bob
