Why would you use fused spurs? All appliances come with a plug which is
already fused.


Not very convenient if the fuse blows, haul out the appliance, un-plug and
change fuse, heave appliance back into place - apposed to use removing fuse
from face plate....

IMO all appliances should be wired in such a way. It's like plumbers placing
shut off valves to washing machine flexible intake pipes (for example)
behind the appliance - bloody useless if the flexible pipe leaks !...
