    Main cut out fuse- rewireable??

    Hello, I installed a new distribution Board at a house today and i found that the main supply cut out was a rewireable fuse. I think the fuse wire was bigger than 30 amp fuse wire but cant be sure what size it was because it had no label on it. Will this be a failure when it comes to testing...

    Substation Fuse

    What would the rating be for a substation fuse and has anyone ever seen one go while on a job? Had a mate asking me this earlier, and now i feel interested. As i understand it goes: substation fuse > DNO fuse > CU?
