central AC keeps blowing fuses

First off, it's an apartment. So call maintenance.
Second off, DO NOT CONSIDER GOING WITH A HIGH NUMBERED FUSE UNDER ANY
CIRCUMSTANCES.
If it's a plug-in type. Unplug it and then replace the fuses. See
what happens.
If it's a built-in A/C, turn it off at the thermostat (or set the AC to
some all the way up so it doesn't come on). Then replace the fuses.
See what happens and post the answers here.
Thanks for the response!
Unfortunately it's a condo so I'm responsible for that sort of stuff.
It's a built-in A/C; there's a switch on the part of the unit inside
the apt so I can turn it off manually. When it's turned off nothing
happens to the fuse; as far as I can tell there's nothing else on those
lines other than the AC unit and the AC fan, so nothing should be
drawing power other than the unit itself. The fuse blows only when I
turn the AC unit back on.
