Correct amp fuses?

From the other thread I've remembered that I have used various IEC's and have mixed them up so I might have incorrectly rated fuses in the plugs. Here is my equipment- what is the recommended fuse for each item?

Poweramps
Pre-amps
AV pre-amps
PC's
CD players
DVD players
TFT displays

Re: Correct amp fuses?

If you look closely at the plug top somewhere it might say what rating.If not check the item itself and it might give a wattage rating if its anywhere round

690 watts = 3 amp
1150 watts =5 amp
2990 watts =13 amp

I hope thats right cause im a bit rusty at the maths,ive given ya the power formula below

watts=voltage*amps
voltage=watts/amps
amps=watts/voltage
