in line before my two Varisreams are fuses, but for some reason just recently the fuse holders keep melting, the fuses are hot but dont break. Can anybody shed some light? My set up has been ok with no probs until this. Has the freezing weather we had the other week done something? No broken wires i can see etcCheers Craig

The fuse melting is due to an extra demand in current that is usually caused by a short circuit in your wiring somewhere.It can lead to a fire if not checked
Cheers all, not been on for a few days as had internet problem.Think ill renew all my wires, but ive already checked them and cant find anything, one of my 100psi pumps has been struggling so put in my old 40 psi pump, fuse holder still melting. Something is up hope to get it sorted!Craig

looks nasty, dont take up being an electrician : there may be an increasse of building fires
