We would like to thank all those who have added to the large number of fuseholders needed for the project, particularly Tim who made the most recent donation.

We have completed all but the last panel which has 5 outlets with 10 fuseholders.

The pictures show a panel under construction, 2 of the 10 twin panels, and Jeremy ( Pamphonica) installing a panel with Paul in the background.

For those who are interested the original wiring fused both he Line & Neutral, for originality we have installed both but only the Live fuse is in use.

Thanks.

Neat!! I recognise those fuse holders. Belling Lee L1382 type, or Post Office PO136F. Used on loads of 1950s military stuff like the Pye C12 transceiver.

They are really rather good quality.

Hi Brian.
I’m glad the fuse holders were suitable.
