You may see the same number printed as 50287203-00\/9 on parts lists and packaging. Fuses protect an appliance's wiring and electronics by breaking the circuit when too much current flows. Always replace a blown fuse with one of the same rating, and find out why it blew before restoring power.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy an appliance fuse blows\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA fuse is the weak link in a circuit by design. When the current rises above its rating, the fuse element melts and cuts the supply, protecting wiring, boards and components from damage. A fuse that blows once may simply have done its job during a power surge, but one that blows again straight away usually means a fault such as a shorted motor, element or board. Fitting a higher rated fuse to stop it blowing removes that protection and can create a fire risk.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine Electrolux group part 50287203009\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlso written 50287203-00\/9\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFuse rated 8A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"part-specs\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eRating\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8A\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eReplacing the fuse safely\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDisconnect the appliance from power before going near the fuse, and confirm it is dead. Check the physical size and type of the fuse match the original as well as the 8A rating. Find and fix whatever caused the old fuse to blow. Where the fuse sits inside a hard-wired appliance or on a mains board, a licensed electrician should do the work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eQuestions about this part\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I use a fuse with a higher amp rating?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. Always fit the same 8A rating as the original.
