Since the meter does actually work, I'm trying to imagine what issue it was they were trying to resolve by removing the casing and putting it on the wrong type of chassis before putting it back, broken, on the original chassis.

It has a rubber boot (grey) on it by the way, so it's hard to imagine it could have suffered drop damage, those protective rubber shrouds work pretty well in my experience.

I'll just have to be patient until the right one comes up. Thanks for the info about the correct fuse, do you know off hand whether they are available from mainstream sources like RS / Farnell?
