I keep reels of all sizes from 5A-100A on the van, hardly ever need them now. I could have made you a nice card of wires!

I've liberated the occasional card when doing CU changes but more often throw it in the bin with the old fuseboard these days, then suddenly you need a little bit, as Pete has discovered. :)

Olde Locale Hardwaree Shoppe will have it.

Trouble is it's probably harder to find an Olde Hardware shop than a card of fuse wire.

Maybe Wilkos

Yes try eBay. Some clown will charge £5 for a bit cos he’s pre cut it to the right length for a fuse holder.
No need to buy a full card of it when 2 inches will do
It’s all fun and games till you snap the fuse wire :laughing:
