The fuse is a protective device for the elec-

off) mainly due to a fault or improper action
on the system.
When a device does not work, check the
efficiency of its fuse. The conductor element
(A-fig. 49) must be intact; if not, replace
the fuse with one of the same amp rating
(same colour).(B) - Undamaged fuse
(C) - Fuse with damaged filament.
Remove the blown fuse using the pincer pro-
vided (D), in the control box.
