It is happening while rig is on for several days. The fuse is old style one time use.
Have you checked the wiring for faulty connections and ratings? (ex. 12gauge+ wires for 20A) The most obvious signs are thin-looking wires in the circuit or bunch of "rat-tail" connections; if there's a problem, the wire or the connections will heat up and will "pop" your fuse.
If you're not qualified to do so, call for a professional electrician to do the job.

There's no other reasons for this other than faulty wiring since it's happening too often to be caused by a bad fuse, otherwise, frequent power outage.
I am not expert in it. However how can a lower quality wire burn the fuse. Every time I noticed that fuse was burned badly. Why the "wire or the connection will heat up" will cause "pop the fuse". Can you please explain?
Thanks a lot for your help.
