Evening guys.
I am sorry if this has been asked or if it is stupid.
I understand the logic of not fusing the neutral, but what was the logic for fusing it in the first place?
Kind regards,
Chris
think it's leftover from the old days of D.C. not sure why though. someone must have thought it a good idea at the time.
Given the fact you were using wooden wheels Tel, I am shocked to see you imply that DC was past tense for you and more so that you don't know!!

Don't forget when a neutral breaks on a connected load the neutral becomes live, for instance in a domestic situation a lighting circuit will have a nasty suprise waiting for you if you touch a neutral where lamps and ballasts are connected to a live circuit, the neutral needs to be a solid link, and again in 3 phase kit a hung neutral would potentially be able to put 400 volts across a 230 volt circuit if it is connected to a single way in a 3 phase board.
