The fuze size n rating is more of its physical mounting dimension and its current rating then whether or not its used on a 6 or 12 volt system. Its voltage withstand rating is wayyyyyyyyy higher then 6 or 12 volts anyway, so if the fuze fits into the socket and is the proper current rating (say maybe 10 to 15 amps in a tractor lighting circuit) THEN IT WILL WORK REGARDLESS IF THE TRACTOR IS 6 OR 12 VOLTS....... Thats kinda the same story about ignition points n condensor, they are passive current switching devices and their current rating is whats critical and again, their voltage withstand rating is wayyyyyyyy higher then 6 or 12 anyway. Sooooooo Nooooooooo I dont envision any special fuzes for tractor use for 6 or 12 volt ONLY, its the size and current rating that counts and when you buy one for general auto or truck or tractor use I dont expect anyone is gonna ask or care if the tractor is 6 or 12 volts, they just need to know its size and current rating.

They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
