Plug fuse question.

Davanius · 6 Oct 2019 at 17:32

Hi, I have bought an Onkyo surround speaker set but it came without a UK plug.

So I have ordered a new plug adapter but I don't know what amp the fuse should be.

It's only a 80 watt sub and on the back it say 50/60 Hz 20W.

Thanks.

A 3Amp fuse will be fine as the sub is only consuming 20W of electrical power.

Owned an Onkyo before, and the adapter was already installed. Some of them are simply an adapter without fuse, which was the one mine came fitted with.
Also mine was an active subwoofer and the subwoofer had the UK plug. Just the receiver needed the adapter.

Thank you very much guys for your help.

3 amp it is.

Get a uk lead? Or chop the plug and fit a uk 3pin.
Not sure about the fuse possibly 3amp
