i have just come back from a metal fabrication plant with a bit of a problem.
the press is a 60 / 70 tonne machine press that is fed via a three phase DOL (direct on line) contactor via a three phase disconnect and fuse panel.
that in itself is easy (ish) but the problem is that i cannot find the replacement fuses for the panel anywere.
they are a Crabtree BS88 / 1952
RATED AT 440V AC 4
List No: 15947 (30amp)
they are about an inch and a half long and barrel shaped with caps on either end, they look like the US type cartridge fuses but i cant find them anywere.
i have Yellow phase down on the press at the moment, the owner wants me to `bodge` the fuse with some fuse wire, i told, in no uncertaint terms, that i aint gonna do that.
if anyone out there can help i would be grateful. emai me if you can help.
i will need one to start with to get the press runninmg but a want some spares as well.
Many Thanks
Britspark
