Lightbulb Vintage fuse holder for showmens tractor.

Hi all,

I am asking on the behalf of a fellow engine owner, who isn't so hot on the old computer & Internet thing!

He is looking at fitting a fuse, on the supply from the showmens tractor & is ideally looking for something that is period looking. So the first question is, has anyone got something?

The dynamo is rated at 100 Amp, so he is guessing that the fuse should be about 80 Amp & to give a bit of scope. If he can't get a period looking holder & fuse than it maybe a case, of getting a modern fuse & hiding it away somewhere.

Any thoughts & help welcome, if you wish to get in contact please post or PM on here. I can then pass on his contact number/email, if you wish to get in contact directly.


Many thanks,

Dan

Check on ebay under porcelain fuse or bakelite fuse a few options come up. I was after one for a 400 - 500A dynamo but nothing turned up that big but for your size there should be a few more options. Regards.
