LED floodlight?

[ParaJack]

Hi, just a quick one! I'm about to replace a halogen floodlight to a 10 Watt LED flood light, the switch inside the house has a pull out fuse under it, currently it's got a 13amp fuse in there, will that be OK for the new 10 watt LED light or should I put a 3 or 5 in there?

Thanks

Hi mate. Does it not mention what value of fuse to use in the flooflight manual. Check there first.

 

[Spoon]

If not then post the make and model of the light.

Work out the load yourself.....10/230=??

You have to be careful Tazz, some of these 10W floodlight can have a Circuit Wattage of 11w.... pedantic.. me...

No instructions, just the light/PIR with around 2ft of cable attached...this one to be exact CHEAPEST PRICE for 1 X 10W LED Floodlight 900 Lumens 80W Equiv

Weather 10w or 11w..there is 0.01 of amp in it......you are looking for a fuse rating not a technical specification....so 1-3 amp fuse would be good wouldn`t you agree

OK I've used a 3 amp All working anyway.

Thanks

a 13A is fine if the cable is 1.5mm. any less, then downrate fuse to 5A.
