The general public's understanding of fuses

[HIDLamp]

Fake Britain was on this morning and they were discussing fake plug fuses. They went out asking random people what they knew about them. One lady said that the '13 'A'' is for the iron, the '5 'A' is for the kettle and the pink one is universal. Thing is it keeps most of you in a job.

The pink ones is universal?, excellent I didn`t know that, I need one of those for my tumble drier!

That's why women shouldn't be allowed near electrics

I'll have to get some of those 'Universal' fuses as I don't seem to have any in my van....... lol

I've seen rolled up chewing gun foil used as a fuse before...

LOL, I`ve seen a single strand of copper from flex wound around the fuse pins, (several times), before!
It looked like a tiny transformer in the plug!
