Splice 220 volt 6 gauge line outside- is it safe?
In article ,
says...
Dunno. Never saw the primary fuse open tho, maybe there isn't one. I
know there is a recloser on the primary somewhere that can open and
automatically reset but you usually only see that with a fault on the
primary, like a pole down.
I have seen plenty of transformers blow without taking out the
primary.
That is really not my area of expertise but next time I see my FPL guy
I will ask him.
If there is a fuse, it needs to be at the top where that disconnect
ring is.
That disconnect may be part of a breaker. I saw where one tripped and
the lineman pushed it in with a long pole. There may be 2 sperate
devices for all I know of it.
