radio controlled wall clock changing a fuse help please?
my fuse in the kitchen blew out. I have the old screw in type fuses. the one that blew out controls my fridge. It has a copper type sleeve on the end similar to a lightbulb and on the face it says 25T. But when i went to the store they only have a 20TL or a 30TL with the same copper sleeve. In my fusebox next to the fuse that blew out is also another 25T that controls from what i could figure out my front porch light, indoor wall outlit which has a lamp on it and the clock radio in my bedroom. I dont know wether to use the 20 or the 30? Would the 30 be too much amps and cause my house to catch fire or should I use the 20. I was so confused I bought both kinds and right now i am using the 20. so far so good. Also on the back of the box of fuses it says do not put more watage than is allowed in the socket or it can cause a house fire. But the front of the fuse says amps not wattage. Are they the same or different. I am so confused. Help me please.
Always better to go with the lower amp rating when replacing fuses if they don't have exact size of the old blown fuse. Now days 25 amps is sort of an odd size and the old type screw in fuse boxes are hardly used anymore, that is maybe why they didn't have a 25. You can always take the 30 back for refund, or keep it to replace a 30 that blows-if you have an existing 30. Amps(current) are the intensity of the flow of the electrons being pullled through the wire to whatever device is using the electricity. Wattage is the power being used by the same device. Usually when you have to replace an electrical item it will have several different ratings such as an amp rating a voltage rating and a watt rating-that,of course, is what they have been tested up to and not to exceed.
Hope this answer help to alleviate the confusion.

what is a radio controlled clock and how does it work?
i have bought a radio controlled wall clock but i dont know how it works.no option to set the dials
A radio controlled clock, also known as an atomic clock, works by synching with a central clock that sends out a radio signal. This central clock keeps time by monitering the decay of radioactive materials with a known half life. For this reason, they are extremely, extremely accurate and will stay accurate to the second virtually forever.
Each clock is different, you would have to check the instructions, but usually you just plug it in, and hang it up. It's programmed to synch every so often, and when that time hits, the hands will set themselves.
Plug it in, and give it 24 hours (it should take far, far less) if you can't find any instructions to set it up.
Hi, JT here. I recently received a Projection Alarm Clock as a gift and thought that it was just the coolest thing ever. I've started giving them to friends and thought I'd do a little research and put a site together about Projection Clocks and Atomic Clocks. I hope you enjoy!
