My house had a 60A fuse on the incoming cutout. I rang Western Power
to enquire about an upgrade and within 90 minutes it was done. I now
have 80 amp fuse and was told it could go up to 100 amp if the cutout
was changed. Incredible service.
The question though. What current fuse is normal these days?


My house fuse has a printed label saying 80A but it's been altered by hand
to read 60A. I've no idea why, or how long it's been like that. I can't
imagine any circumstances in which 60A would be inadequate, but YM
obviously Vs.



Is it the fuse or the cutout that is labelled up as 80A?
