About this deal

I would guess that a 60 Amp fuse is capable of carrying more than its max load before it actually fails to be truthful. He recommended speaking to my DNO who would probably upgrade it to 80 Amps for free, but if I insisted on a 100 Amp fuse, they are very likely to place a cost on that service. Then at peak demand time, our demand ( cooking etc ) is well inside of the safety scope of the 60 Amp protection fuse. If you are running on a 60 Amp fuse, you just have to be mindfully of what demand you are placing on that fuse.

My first attempt was asking the smart meter installer, who said he would have happily done it then if he'd had a fuse with him Breaking capacity is the level of current that the fuse can safely handle without exploding or breaking. The breaking capacity of your fuse should be greater than the fault current of your electronic circuit. Just gone through this malarky in preparation for an EV one day. 16mm Meter tails and unknown main fuse size at the time. Sizes 8 x 32 mm, 10 x 38 mm, 14x51 mm & 22x58 mm in both Class gL-gG and aM are also available with a built-in striker for micro-switch operation and remote indication. Class gL-gG and aM fuse links are intended for industrial applications. All industrial fuse links are available with an operated visible fuse indicator. I have been running on a 60 Amp fuse for the last five year and late last year I had “Smart Meters” installed by EDF.

Order Approval

I've finally got my EV charging point due to be fitted next month, and in preparation have been trying to get my existing 80A main fuse upgraded to 100A.

It is a setting where a circuit experiences a current that is higher than the normal operating current. WTF? I though other people had got this done for free? What even is a low voltage cut-out, won't I already have one, and why do I suddenly need a new one? And how long (and how much 'project management') does it take to change a fuse?
