I have cord that is rather short, so I found a longer one and wanted to swap the IEC [kettle lead] type.
I checked the fuse to see if they are the same new one is a 5A & the existing one is 13A; can that be right for a laptop? It's an Acer A13-045N2A its the one that came with the laptop (I don't remember changing the lead in the past but 13 sounds a bit high would it be safe to use the 5A).

Please post a phone photo of the fuse you're referring to? The maximum output current is 3.42amp. The circuit breaker is inside the charger body in the US, not the AC cord, and should be no more than about 5amps. Length is usually 6-9 feet. How long do you need it to be? Can you post phone photos of the two cords that you have?
