    How are auto piggy back fuses connected to the fuse block.

    I am getting conflicting information on piggy back fuses that I am using in my Honda CRV and Ram Promaster 3500. I assumed that the piggy back fuse connector was a bridge between the hot and the ground bus in the fuse block and hence was independent from the fused circuit that was using that...

    IDENTIFY THE CAPACITY OF MY MAINS SUPPLY CUT-OUT FUSE (PLUS...)

    About 15 years ago, after having had a modern consumer unit fitted, and prompted by our electrician, I asked my then energy supplier (Tonik) if our 1968 60 Amp cut-out fuse could be upgraded to 100 Amps, and what additional work/expense would be needed.

    Isolate circuit but trips fuse board

    Hi Weird problem. I’m replacing plug sockets. I isolate the circuit for the particular sockets at the fuse board so it is safe to swap out. All good. Suddenly the RCCB for all sockets - not just the circuit of the sockets I have isolated - trips. Why is this happening? The RCCB doesn’t trip...

    Difference between FSU and 3 pin plug, both with 5 amp fuse for LED downlights?

    Is there an obvious reason why I can't just fit a plug onto my LED soffit downlights, fitted with a 5amp fuse and plug it into a socket rather than install a 5amp fsu? I'm fine with the plug being permanently plugged in as the socket gets no use anyhow. TIA

    New supply to garage. DNO have not fitted fuse.

    My customer has had a completely new supply installed to his garage. The DNO has not put a fuse in the cut out though. I'm guessing he needs to contact the DNO to discuss? I realise it would be very easy to pop a fuse in, but apart from this not being allowed, I also wouldn't know the size of...
