ever seen a blown cut-out fuse?

wallywombat
Perhaps I've had a sheltered upbringing, but it's occurred to me that I've never encountered a blown cut-out fuse (e.g. a BS1361 BS88-3). So have any of you seen one? How rare are they? Any interesting or salutatory tales to tell?

    Almost an equally load exclamation when my 'repair' to get it back on again quick, that  involved 3 short lengths of twisted fuse wire shunting each blown fuses was discovered,




    "Was that wrong? Should I not have done that?"
