It appears she did. And when I said I had fuses she was horrified.

I've just had some fuses replaced with trip switches on a
house I'm letting out. It makes life an awful lot simpler.

Why is it simpler?

You just push the lever instead of finding
some fuse wire and rewiring the fuse.

Fuses hardly ever blow,

True.

unlike some breakers....

None of my plug in breakers that go where
the fuse wire holder goes has ever blown.

Yet above you're saying how convenient they are.

I said blown, not tripped.

I have had a few trips and fuses blow when a PAR38
has blown on turn on and blown the fuse or tripped
the breaker.
