Usually, how- * ever, it doesn't happen right away. 0 80 you figure the large fuse is safe enough to use a_ little longer. After that, you decide all the worry over fuses is poppycock--and the large fuse is there to stay. There is just one rule on fuses for: light eircuits. Always use fuses of 15 amperes or less.
