The outlet might output 13 amps, but the monitor will only draw less than 5 amps. &nbsp;The fuse is there to protect the monitor from going over 5 amps. &nbsp;It normally shouldn't go over that, but if there was a voltage spike then the circuit may go over. &nbsp;The fuse is there to protect the monitor from those spikes and it did its job.

Always replace a fuse with the equivalent fuse. Never replace the fuse with a higher amperage fuse

spoke to a customer who had a monitor that wouldn’t power up <br />

turns out the fuse was blown and it was a 5 amp in it <br />

what amp should it be for a screen and what amp for a PC <br />
