Re: Do cartridge fuses deteriorate with age?
Richard's does look like the fuse itself was the culprit though, and it's a proper, certified one rather than a market stall special.
Or do you think that the damage to the red plastic fuse carrier was actually caused by the plug?
Either way, it seems that our plug/socket system has always struggled with continuous loads near the 13A maximum rating, whatever the brand.
