Hope this all helps;
Proper English made Lucas, Unipart and equivalent fuses are marked with
both their contiuous rating and instaneous blow current. In all cases,
the rated capacity of the fuse (as per Triumph book) is TWICE the
continuous current capacity, ie a 50 amp fuse is not meant to run more
than a 25 amp circuit.
Originally Lucas settled on a colour coding but this has now been
supersceded;
Rated capacity Colours
5amp red print on yellow paper
10 green on black
15 black on lt.brown
25 black on pink
35 black on white
50 purple on yellow
60 yellow on red
If anyone wants more info on these, or wire sizes, I have all the
original Lucas training and enginnering manuals
If anyone is having troubles getting correct length or rated English
fuses, we have
stocks here in Australia.
