I think this post is a load of ********. There hasn't been fuses in
neutrals since the days of DC (ie 1930s). I used to work for the
electricity board. Someone would have removed equipment like that
when the meter/supply cable was replaced years ago. No electrician who
sees such a thing is going to fail to report it.

Well, this house was built in 1932, and rewired in 1970.

Fuses are dead centre of this pic - so these would have been 1930s DC
fuses?

Cripes. That looks EXACTLY like my old house looked. Also rewired in the
70's. Badly.
