Well I suppose it had to happen!
Today my main company fuse blew when my rotary converter was spinning away driving the chiller. Total load about 15KW. The poor old fuse has been repeatedly stressed for the last 22 years that we have been here starting up loads of big motors on machinery. As an example my old static phase converter would push it's 100 amp meter off scale when it started my big compressor.
Fuse carrier is marked up 100amp so I was rather suprised when the man from EDF opened it up and found a 60 amp in there. He replaced it with a 100a one. Time from calling them to fuse replaced was less than an hour - quite impressive I think.
