Q: Is a 16a fuse OK for this?

Asked by Greek spiros on 2020-01-19 14:16:48

BG047131714 A 16A fuse will work if you are using a 220 volt power source. 3800 watts divided by 220 volt = 17.27A. It may not comply with the electrical code in your country, but it should operate without blowing the 16A fuse.
