    Switched fuse isolator

    I have got to install a switched fuse isolator with 25mm tails and a 3 core 25mm armoured. Any recommendations on an isolator? Always struggle with isolators twisting and generally just not enough room.

    Should I upgrade a fuse switch box for my furnace?

    Hello, Newbie to this forum here in the U.S. My 1970's house has a main/sole electric panel with a dedicated 20A circuit breaker for the furnace. In the next room, 20 feet away, there is a small junction box with a switch and 15A type T fuse controlling the furnace. I'm guessing the switch box...

    Replacing a 13A plug fuse with solid brass

    I read once, never seen one for sale, that there is a solid brass replacement for the standard 13A fuse in a 13A plug. This is to eliminate the fusing in the plug, which is handy when having a heavy appliance plugged in behind itself, like under worktops which are isolated and fused by an FCU...

    Z values for fuse to EN60269

    Anyone know if there is a specific list of Z(s) values for a fuse to EN60269? I've just used 5s values for an 88:2 as I figured they'd be pretty close but wondered if there is an actual table anywhere. No biggee. Alternatively, has 60269 been replaced by another standard anyway?

    Fuse size unheard of (by me)

    Second/third post of the day. You can tell it's a cert writing day. Quick question. On the NICEIC EICR forms there is a drop down menu concerning the fuse size of main protective device. One of the sizes listed is 113 amps. Does a 113 amp fuse exist? Thanks
