I want to buy some new fuses today for my Atari Power supply and I want to make sure this is ok. I tried asking this question in an older thread but no one replied.
The fuses called for are 3amp 250v 3AG and a 7amp 250v 3ag (both slow-blow). What does the 3ag refer to? I noticed that radio shack fuses don't have these labels. Is it just fine to buy a 3amp 250v to replace a 3a 250v 3ag in a slow blow? Also 3 of the fuses are rated the same according to the manual, but look different- as some have coils and some have straight wires inside them. Is it ok to mix and match or buy one or the other?
My gut tells me that a 3a 250v slow blow from radio shack will do the trick regardless of wether the wire is straight or coiled or if it's denoted 3ag. Am I right?
