    30 amp fuse in a 60 amp switch?

    I have a 60 amp 600 volt switch that I want to install 30 amp fuses in. Is there an adapter I can get to make this possible?

    That's why I come here, too. That, and the price is right.

    You should specialize in electrical obscurites.

    We have customers that build many locations and specify fused switchgear so it is kind of common for us to need fuse reducers.

    About 15 years ago we did a large store and the engineer specified fused switchgear with each position being one size larger than needed so in a brand new electric room every fused switch had fuse reducers installed.
