interesting. so if the fuse is, as you say, to protect the DNO's cable etc., then the tails are not, themselved protected. only downstream in the CU, and indirectly by the actual max. load that may be relevant at any one time. therefore, using 25mm tails just because the DNO fuse is 100A is not justifiable. tin hat on by a guy who regularly fits 16mm tails.
you say 92A for 16mm, but according to table F4(i) in osg ( green 17th ed), no figures are given for 16mm single cables in free air (ref. method F). 25mm CCC has a 45% highr rating method F as opposed to methoc C, which woulf extrapolate for 16mm as 114A.
