Answer / nil

Not necessary, because the fuse will work on inverse time
characteristic with current. Upto 5 A it allow without
heating the fuse link but if the current increase beyond
its rating(including overloading condition) the temperature
also increase and melt the fuse link.

hence, this fuse allow upto its overload withstand limit.
