Answer
No, and if you don't know why you shouldn't be doing home electrical repair work. Get a book and read up on this.
Answer
Yes you can, but it is NOT recommended under any circumstances! The "yes" answer is an honest one. You can put a fuse in a circuit that is several times the rating of the one that came out or that belongs in the fuse holder. But doing so is so totally nuts that only a fool of the first order would even consider doing it. Buildings have burned because of stuff like this, and fatalities have been recorded. You've been warned in every way possible. Please do a bit of homework and get up to speed on this kind of thing before diving headlong into it. The recommendations of the first post are dead on target.
