Hi just typing in results for a minor works EIC. Feeding a 1mm TWE from spur unit with 3A fuse. The package automatically works out max Zs permitted but when i get to that box it says "invalid combination".

I put in BS 1363 fuse rated at 3Amps.

At the moment i have over written the package and put in 16.4 Ohms but now i am doubting myself, any ideas?
 
would you not enter the OCPD for the whole circuit.?
 
IMO, the circuit starts at the CU and the OCPD for that circuit is in the CU (MCB or fuse), as the FCU and subsequent downstream circuitry is only part of the circuit.
