How close to battery should amp fuse be?

Can a 20 amp fuse cause a blown fuse?
The most common amperages are 15, 20 and 30, and replacing a 15 amp fuse with a 20 or 30 amp, or a 20 amp fuse with a 30 amp, may result in a blown fuse. Worse, it could cause a more severe car electrical problem, because it can cause wires to melt.

What should I do if my battery fuse is blown?
If those are the ONLY things broken when the fuse is blown (make sure that turn signals, brake lights, etc DO work), I would leave a blown fuse in there for the long drive and only try to fix it before a short drive. Don’t risk further damage by replacing the fuse without examining the wiring first.
