A caution for others.
I have added several circuits with in line protection using ATC type colour
coded blade fuses.
Beware of the import, no-name, no specification boxes of lo cost fuses.
I recently had an 'accident" and the fuse did not rupture.
Fortunately I was about to prevent too much smoke.
Further testing revealed that this fuse was defective and the let through
was several multiples above where it should have been.
So no more cheepos for me - but proper Bussman or Littlefuse products.
