Any ideas the ideal fuse protection to use on a 24 volt coil supply,control system.problem with fuse blowing,no fault on control system.

How much current does the coil take? what is recommended by the starter manufactures?

 

[Brightspark2]

What rating is it now?...

 

[Plonker 3]

Try with the smallest and keep up rating them until it stops blowing.

Better get the foil out then hadn't they

AC or DC coils? What type of fuse? Total control current? Don't forget to allow for coil inrush!

There isn't a zero worn off the coil label, is there?.......could be a few years old. :smilewinkgrin:

Stop my fuse blowing we have a Voltage and a control for a coil .... limited info so give us all the details ..

Coil inrush?
Is the fuse on the 24v side or the supply to the TX?
Is the coil faulty?
Anything else on this 24v supply?
Fuse rating size and characteristics ....I.E. Anti surge etc .........

Joking aside it wouldn't blow the fuse it ust wouldn't work :thinking2:

I managed to blow this on DC, there's plenty of scope for him yet.

How in the name of god can anyone give an answer to a question with no substance?

Talking of substance, I feel in need of some right now.
