can anyone tell me the disconnection time for this fuse 6amp bs3871 and where did they get the info from? Can this be found on the net?

I have a link to a fantastic chart, but this forum will not let me display the link.

You are looking for 6.4 ohm corrected to a rule of thumb of 80% This assumes you are talking about a B type breaker. Other types would be : C, 3.2 : D, 1.6 : T1, 8 : T2, 4.56.

yes it would be a type b or 2. It is for the purpose of placing it on a domestic cert and is not in the reg book, nor nic database or MK (manufacturer)

as a prat P registered electrician, you should know that it is measured in ohms, not time

No - disconnection time is measured in seconds.

Or possibly minutes, but this would be a Bad Thing™....
