    Replacing wire in a fuse?

    Hi all, This is the first time which I have had to replace the wire in a fuse so I just want to make sure that I have done it correctly. The wire which I have fed through the two holes is not perfectly straight where you can see it through the opening, is this ok? (slightly bent) Thanks
