Positively not. Never ever use a different size fuse in a circuit. The fuse is there to protect the wiring in the circuit from overheating and catching on fire.
The fuse you use is determined by the load on the circuit and the size wiring used in that circuit not the battery voltage.
No. If the voltage rating of a fuse is too low for the circuit in which it is fitted then, when the fuse operates (i.e. its link melts), the circuit voltage might maintain the resulting arc within the fuse, and it will fail to protect that circuit.
No, it is not safe to use a 250V 15A fuse in a 125V circuit. The voltage rating of the fuse should match or exceed the circuit voltage to ensure safety. Using a lower voltage rated fuse can lead to overheating and potentially create a fire hazard. Always use the correct fuse rating for your circuit.
NO! Using a larger amp fuse defeats the purpose of the fuse to protect the wiring in the circuit. This can cause a fire. Always use the correct amp fuse for that circuit.

you can use a fuse or circuit breaker
every circuit has a different rated amp fuse, it should say on the fuse box what amp to use for each circuit.
No, if it has a fuse then that is the protection for that circuit. If the fuse keeps blowing then you are either using too small a fuse or you have something wrong with that circuit. Short inn the circuit or it is overloaded. Make sure you are using the correct size fuse and do not use a larger fuse than required.
No, it is not safe to use a 600V fuse in a 120V circuit. The fuse voltage rating should be equal to or greater than the circuit voltage to ensure proper protection. Using a higher-rated fuse can lead to safety hazards and may not provide adequate protection for the circuit. It is recommended to always use the correct voltage-rated fuse for the circuit.
