[Elecraft] new owner looking for fuses.

This is incorrect!
The current rating of a fuse is independent of the voltage.
The fuse blows as a result of heat, which is proportional to I squared times R. 
The voltage rating is just a guarantee that if it does blow, it won’t stay conductive due to an arc.
