KhunBENQ Posted March 10, 2023 Share Posted March 10, 2023 (edited) The first of two fuses of a UPS has triggered (4A, the ones in the glass tube with fine wire). Supplied replacement works. But would still be better to have a spare. Anybody knows where to get in Pattaya? Edited March 10, 2023 by KhunBENQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacko45k Posted March 10, 2023 Share Posted March 10, 2023 (edited) I ordered off AliExpress but bet Lazada carry them too. The electrical shop on North Rd just down from the Bus Station might carry them. Edited March 10, 2023 by jacko45k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guderian Posted March 11, 2023 Share Posted March 11, 2023 The big hardware/DIY stores should have them, I've bought them there before in places like Thai Watsadu or Home Pro. I've bought them in packs of five fuses, as you say, it never hurts to have a few spares around the place. Be careful what you buy, though, as they look pretty much the same but have different amp ratings. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you know that an RCD does not replace a fuse. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KhunBENQ Posted March 11, 2023 Author Share Posted March 11, 2023 (edited) Sounds like the term "fine wire fuse" is misunderstood? Does "glass wire" hit the nail? Nothing to do with household circuit breakers. Edited March 11, 2023 by KhunBENQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KhunBENQ Posted March 12, 2023 Author Share Posted March 12, 2023 (edited) Surprise. Found a near match at HomePro on Sukhumvit. They have 5 A, 10 A and 15 A (longer cylinder). 5 A is not 4 A but I think the device would survive. Edited March 12, 2023 by KhunBENQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
