    Should I upgrade a fuse switch box for my 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 Alternatively, has 60269 been replaced by another standard anyway?

    Main fuse blows before MCB.

    I wonder if anyone can suggest a scenario that could have made this happen. I did a full rewire on a two bed purpose-built flat a few weeks ago. TNCS, cut-out in cupboard at the stair-well, I ran the tails to a switched fuse inside the flat and on from there to the consumer unit. All tested...

    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

A 13A fuse is ridiculously oversized. If having a mcb or RCBO at the CU for just the fridge, a 1.00mm cable can be run on...

Or because there is a dial in another part of the house where I assume some kind of schedule can be programmed...

    I have an older house that was built in stages back around 1960 as far as I can surmise. Highly suspect that the entire house was a DIY job. I've been unraveling the wonky wiring since day one.
