Once again your information is incorrect. "S" type fuse adapters can be
screwed into the plug fuse sockets and only the proper size fuse can be
used. They are UL approved and happen to be safer in many respects that
circuit breakers, and I'd rather doubt any insurance company would have an
issue with them




Again many insurance companies today wouldnt insure any home with a
fuse box for NEW custonmers.....

have you bothered to call some agents and ASK, getting some solid
current info?

curious what other things do you buy that has a lifetime of over 100
years like K&T wiring?


I prefer to buy very little that doesn't look like it could last 100
years if it had to! I don't understand our throwaway society...
