Did a replacement CU in block of flats today.
When I took out the cut-out fuse, there was no cartridge fuse in there, just a thick metal plate, bridging the contacts.
Reckoned the place would toast before that ever ruptured, so I called out the REC, who replaced it with a 100A fuse.
But when I said, the other flats may be the same, he shrugged and said "Doubt it".
If that were me, I'd have checked the lot, wouldn't you?
