fuse question?

hi,

i'm repairing an EM pinball which requires a 15-Amp fuse 24 Volts. I can only find a 15-Amp 250 Volts fuse to buy at the shop. Will this fuse be ok? Or do I need to find the correct voltage fuse? Any help will be appreciated.

thanks

Like Tony said thats fine.
I learnt the hard way , Always make sure that the fuse is the right Amp ( current) rating. I bought a pin which was "over" fused & I didn't check the fuses . I found out when 2 pop bumper coils got smoked. !!! Now I always check fuse ratings before turning on a new pin.
Hope this experience helps someone out there.
Cheers Steve.
