can you help me identify main fuse

[sheppy100]

Hi
I have changed over my 3036 type cu to a shiny new RCD... when I pulled the main fuse it wasn't actually a fuse (not the usual BS88 you normally get anyway) it was a shaped piece of copper, I can't see that it acts as a fuse it would take to much power to operate and doesn't have a rating ie 60amp... the property is a first floor flat is there likely to be a main fuse somewhere else or is that it... if it is what type (BS) is it. any advice appreciatted

Where is this in relationship to the meter?

It is sometimes known in flats to have a solid link in the fuse holder with the fuse for the flat downstairs somewhere.

But like everyone else has said PIC

P.S why are you pulling the fuse anyway?

So would there be a fuse somewhere in the flats....there is a box downstairs in the entrance hall thats padlocked could that be it... the meter and the link are right outside the front door to the flat

Do you have a pic of the bit where you pulled it out from
Was it on its own.
Could it be a neutral link , and the main fuse is nearby
