I'd love to be able to get a modern fuse panel that looks like that, except that instead of snap switches I would have breakers. Size the breaker for the circuit, and the fuses one size larger as supplementary OCPD. Best of both worlds at only 20x the price  -Jon

If you used DIN rail components you could do that for a reasonable price. Think there are even UL listed parts. The actual procedure is simple: get a breaker and a Neozed fuse base for each circuit and throw it all into the panel. The wiring from the fuses to the breakers will be a bit tricky though, need to have wire jumpers.

I haven't checked in years, but does Square D (QO line) still make fuse holders that plug into a breaker slot in a QO panel? I remember them from the 1980's but haven't seen them since. They were nice since you could use fuses and breakers within the same plug-in panel.

Jon, I'd love to be able to get a modern fuse panel that looks like that, except that instead of snap switches I would have breakers. Like this?This product is intended to provide compliance with 700.27 and 701.18. The breaker should operate to provide overcurrent protection and the fuse will open for short circuits and ground faults. Don
