    laptop power supply cables - fuses and ratings

    Hi there. I have noticed that most laptop power supply cables have a 5A fuse in the plug, but a 2.5A rating on the clover leaf end of the cable. Is this safe? Surely there should be a 3A fuse in the plug at least, given the cable is rated for 2.5A. The whole industry seems to be happy to...
