[QUOTE="BS3036, post: 148693, member: 78"] The original question allowed only Yes or No answers. The real answer is 'it depends'. If the circuit is less than 3m then the fusing is allowed at the load end. Can't remember the reg number off hand. This is quite ignoring the special case ring final which is allowed, for historical reasons admittedly, but still allowed. I'm surprised anyone is trying to apply logic to the wiring regulations though. :) [/QUOTE]
