I need to replace an AH 10A 250 V glass type fuse and the closest I
have is an AGC 10A 32V fuse. They are the same physically, but are they
the same electrically? The actual fuse element inside the 32V fuse
looks thicker than the 250V fuse.


The 32 volt fuse may not interupt the fault without blowing up.

More importantly (and dangerously) the 32 volt fuse might arc after it
blows, and keep the current going for a short period of time longer then it
should.
