They look a lot thinner than they are in that photo.. unlike people on TV they seem to have lost 20lbs [Linked Image]

I think the fact that they've used individual cables without the grey sheathing makes them look thinner but on close inspection they're pretty substantial at least as thick as my little finger.

The service is actually 60 - 80amps, probabally 60..

As for the type of fuse, have never had the opportunity to see one of those black boxes opened up. I don't think it's diazed/neozed.. I think it's just like an oversized cartridge fuse.
