100 Amp Fuse

[Andy Dawson]

I'm after a 100 amp fuse suitable for part of a 3 phase supply to my mates barn.

One of the items shown in the piccys is now dead, can anyone help with a replacement?

[Ollie]

What type?

Hey mate,
I'm an industrial sparks let me know the fuse details and I can send you a new fuse probably free of charge.

[Andy Dawson]

The only details I have been given are:-
"its 100 amp 3 phase incoming - and the ones we have are made by Lucys of Oxford."

Will try to get physical measurements soonest.

Thanks for your help Ollie

Hi I am a sparky as well if Ollie cant help post some photo's of the fuse as well as any details you can get off it and I might be able to get you one or at least let you no where you can get one.

[Andy Dawson]

Dear HairyBulldog - you would like some photos eh?

Whats wrong with the ones I posted already?
or are they only visable to me?

Try a 6 inch nail, that will work

The reason he is saying that is that you are only showing pics of the fuse holder the fuse is inside it.

Fair point that - have asked for internal photos. Should have thought of that me self.

Communication

The photos I posted in this thread are all that's relevant.
I should have listened to my mate more carefully then I would have known he was after the Fuse Holder not a new fuse .

If any one can find a similar example to that shown in the photo we would be most grateful as we can then replace it with out any one knowing it was damaged!

Thanks folks

[paulh]

Don,t know how he's going to replace it as those look like the main incoming fuses and if so can only be isolated by the leccy board.

[Andy Dawson]

It can be done with a GREAT deal of care - but in this case I believe there is an isolator switch before the fuse board.

You could try Lucy's www.lucyswitchgear.com but that looks pretty old to me.

Just wrap some tin foil around the old one.

[Andy Dawson]

Right got some proper photos of the buggered bit, if you guys can help find a replacement for the burnt out one I would be most happy.

Unfortunately Lucy's have run out

Included is a picture of what it should look like!

Why don't you just replace it with a modern three phase distribution panel.
