Loaded Circuit Blows Fuses Having trouble with fuses blowing all the time 7 You say you are constantly re placing them but they still keep on blowing. This rem edy is great for the fuse manufacturing business -but it won’t solv£ your problem. University safety "experts suggest that next time a fuse blows, you check to see what is causing the trouble before putting in a new fuse A fuse usually blows for one of two reasons, First, you may have a short circuit m one of your appliances Or you might have too many lamps and appliances operat ing on the same circuit Eith er situation will cause too much electricity to pass thru your household circuit wires, causing them to .overheat When the wires become too hot, the fuse will blow When a fuse blows, it breaks the electrical circuit and prevents the wires from get ting so hot that they become a fire hazard To determine wliat your pdoblem is, first, check all your 1 ghts and appliances to be sure they’re in safe opera ting condition.

Next, check to see if you have too many lamps and appliances operating on the same circuit Begin by plug ging m one appliance oi lamp and then a second Con tinue to plug m additional ones until a fuse blows Then count up the number of watts used by the appliances and lamps that you had plug ged in before the fuse blew The number of watts used by an appl.ance is usually printed on the metal name plate On a lamp, look for the wattage on top of the light bulb The total is the number of watts, you can ask that particular circuit to provide without blowing a fuse If you find you have too many things plugged into this circuit, distribute the electrical load to other cir cuits provided they too are not being used to capacity. Once you ’ve determined the cause of trouble and fixed it, then replace the blown-out fuse with one of the same size “Never re place it with a larger fuse,” safety experts warn. “A larg er fuse will only pose a larg- Lancasier Farming, Saturday, November 18, 1961 er fire hazard by letting the wires get much hotter before the fuse blows”.
