Help finding a fuse

Also, #54 is a 20A fuse, and that's a 15A circuit breaker. Downgrading the protection device won't hurt anything, but it may now trip for other reasons. Would this 20A one from Amazon work? http://www.amazon.com/Bussmann-BP-CB.../dp/B009WQPBZC
I followed the link and the breaker has the wrong prong type, but this one was one of the similar items and would fit #54:

Knowing to try #54 first was a great help and timesaver.
