[mention:1464c19cd52b4d7994cd2b1d0ff981ba:e9ed411860ed4f2ba0265705b8793d05] A lot of people tend to abuse equipment. Your point about the fuse is especially important for safety.

This is quite intriguing to me, is there any more information that can be released as to the industry sector these instruments with the incorrect fuse came from? I know in my industry there is an awful lot of effort into ensuring that electricians utilise the correct fuse in their instrument and test leads, should they need to be replaced.

Kind regards

I took a moment to read about ceramic and glass fuses. Who knew? I didn't. Amperage and voltage is all I looked at when digging through the bottom of the tool box to find a fuse.

Thank you for the insightful article.
