Hello All,
I was hoping to be able to put something together to control the AC Power for an Amplifier but I'm having some trouble selecting a Relay that can handle the load...
The problem I'm having is unfortunately there is no information on how much current the amplifier draws. The only thing I've been able to find is a 5A/250VAC ceramic fuse just after the AC IN.
The Question/s
Does having a 5A/250V Fuse mean that under normal operating conditions, the current drawn by the Amplifier will never exceed 5A?
Would it be safe to use a Relay rated for 5A/250VAC or should I use a 10A relay be a better option?
Thanks guys for your help in advance.
Alex
