[Milsurplus] HV Fuses: You Were Right, I Was Wrong

[Bry Carling]

Reminds me of an old song:

"I could be handy, mending the fuse, when your lights are gone..."

"Will you still need me, will you still feed me? when I'm Sixty-four."

We literally did that in the 1950s. We had no cartridge fuses or round fuses in our homes 
in London in those days.

>It turns out fuse wire is still available. It's called

>COOPER BUSSMANN - BFW-2 - BUSS FUSE WIRE

>And a number of distributers list it. There are other guages too, at
least BFW-1

>I've not searched the specs, but:

>BFW-1 = 0.016"
>BFW-2 = 0.025

>The down side is it's not cheap...  aout $80 per roll at a quick look.

>Best, -John
