Default Wich BS does a main switch for semi-enclosed fuses to BS 3036 comply to?

I am currently training to become a inspector for electrical
installations. While studying the Installation certificate I came
across the section 'Main Switch or Circuit Breaker', where it asks for
the type of main switch. Now, modern type circuit breakers don't seem
to be a problem since the desired data is written on the main switch
(usually BS-EN 60947-3). My problem, what needs to be filled into the
box if the installation has old type BS 3036 rewirable fuses. It does
neither say on the board nor the main switch and nobody I know seems to
be able to tell me. Does any of you inspectors out there know?
