[alarm man]

looks like an old mem switch to me,no fuses.

The switch meachanism wil be to BS5419

The fuse will be inside, you'll need to take the cover off to find it. It may be an old porcelain 3036 rewireable inside, complete with asbestos flashguards so be careful.

These are old ''BILL'' switch fuses, most came with HRC fuse's, Well the industrial ones did, can't say for certain what was provided in the domestic/commercial versions.... The actual switches are far superior than those available today, they were built to last!!! :tank:
