How many amps should the 250v fuse be for the ballast under the plug in receptacle?

watts 600w divided by voltage usually 120v voltage on fuse doesn't matter as long as its less then rating on fuse, equals amps 5 round up for fuse 5.5 or 6

Look for the same size fuse as in the plug. If it does not say take the fuse to the store with you. Most of the car cirgarette lighter fuses I have seen range from a low of 20 amps and a high end of 30 amps. newer cars are likely to have 25 amp as a common. TBH I would say just get a 30 amp because the chip circuit breakers in the car tend to cost less and are easier to store.

This ballast is for a 4 lamp (32watt each) fixture. So should work if you have the same configuration. How that helps.Matt

It uses the 12v power wires that go to the old ballast. Very easy to install, excellent quality of light and much brighter than the original bulbs. Once the wires are hooked up, the housing tube clips right into the receptacle.

It uses a 200 AMP ANL Fuses. Make sure that the lead wires to the inverter are no longerthen 4 feet and are at least 2/0 (two aught) wire in thickness. Use two heavy duty marine gradebatteries in parallel maintaining a longer drain@ 12 volts.

Tripplite's website shows that at full load it consumes 200 amps. If you plan on using it fully loaded, you may want a slightly larger fuse than 200, or use a circuit breaker. Fuse size also depends on the size and length of wiring you use to connect it to

Watts over Volts is Amps, so you need an 800mA fuse, 250V rating is fine. This holder fits the 30x6mm fuses. "30mm 800ma 250v fast blow"

I'd suggest a circuit with a 20amp minimum. Preferably 25-30amp. Theses heaters draw a lot of power. (And no, its not a good idea to put a 25-30amp fuse in what was intended to be a 15amp circuit. The wiring is a smaller gauge and can't handle the current)

the 250v is just a rating for the fuse, it has nothing to do with the actual voltage of the unit, if you hookup to 110, your fuse rating will be dbl what is listed, cause the voltage is 1/2 of the 250

I used a 400 watt MH bulb with the ballast no issues. I don't see why a 200 watt wouldn't work.

40 to 80 amps. tube style. when you go to buy, they will recommend the fuse style you need. just remember to order the right amp size. your amp will recommend what size fuse to use.

You should definitely look in the product manual for your inverter (probably available online). The manufacturer of my 300-watt pure sine wave inverter specifies a 40 amp fuse.

you should put a 10A fuse in series, a fast-acting type, not a slo-blow type. If you intend to measure 30A then you really need a different model which support 30A. Those require an external shunt resistor wired together with the meter, and this is part# is usually shown next to the product if it's not included already.

The size fuse depends on the load. Typical on a main line for a boat or rv is 50 amps. The fuse is on the hot side going to the converter. Hopefully your input side has a fuse if it is from a charger. If from a motor, ie generator/alternator, no additional one is typically neede.

You can look it up online or in your manual. It looks like it's 15 amp. Also it would be good to check if there are many functions powered by the same fuse because that could cause issues.

The instructions don't say you should, I never have in 20 years of use. Some I know have used a 30 amp fuse. To be safe you probably should. One of those things I am to do but never do.

You need to order the ballast that has the correct bulb socket the bulb plugs into
