Why???

 

[sedgy34]

Why???

i think you asked why to my comment, supply cable from the 60a fuse to CU,s

IR test between poles on the DP switches.....check main earthing...see how much currents on it.....

 

[GLENNSPARK]

also....hang around for a bit....see if the current draw suddenly jumps up....as if theres a "secret load" anyware..lol....

You didn't make it very clear.

I would check the connections on the cutout/ryefield fuseholders that hold the 60a fuses that keep blowing.
If there is heat build up here due to loose terminations/fuse blades/contacts the heat could melt the fuse wire with only a few amps flowing.
By the time you return to site the fuseholder will have cooled down so you would never know.

A quick way to check for heat build up is the temperature sensing labels sold by RS. I’ve used them on fuses before. Will have a look for them later, busy cooking at the mo.

or possibly a welsh plumber,now theres lovely isn,t it! actually theres a funny story here seems my uncle was tracing our family tree and in 1700 and something 3 welsh brothers came from the valleys to mine coal locally,6 months later they head back to the valleys and a few months later the daughter of the man they were staying with has a baby,and the rest as they say is history.
