9.5kw roughly equates to 40A. A 30A cartridge fuse does not blow at exactly 30A, it should disconnect within 1 hour at approximately 1.45x its rating. At 40A it will take a very long time if it blows at all. It is however bad practice to overload a circuit protective device.

How can in be better?
Your chosen protective device should equal to or greater than the design current, anything less and the circuit fails at design stage.
