Not getting any power? Electrical, it's not kicking on. Maybe a wire isn't hooked up/broken.

Are you sure it has gas in it? No gas and clutch won't engage (safety device). Fuse ok? relay making contact even if it is switching it mught not bridge the circuit.
And my personal favourite (which hapenned to me) the coil is broken therefore buy a new compressor

Id definitely agree with praxis. The fuse is faster at going out. The real question I have is this... Has the fuse been replaced before? If so, how long ago? If it is recurring, then there may be a short between the panel and the clutch. Check for exposed wires. And yes, you have to have refrigerant in the system. It is to prevent the compressor from burning up. Oil is mixed with refrigerant so yeah, important. But the likely thing to check first is the fuse. Then check for refrigerant and so on. Have a good day!!!
