IEC60269 cartridge fuses.

Sparkingchip:

I have just completed a job and installed a new fused main switch upfront of the tails.


Three fuses were supplied 60, 80 and 100 amps all IEC60269 and I have installed the 80 amp fuse.


All done, however I am now looking on pages 356-358 of The Wiring Regulations BS7671 and surprise, surprise, I cannot find them listed. Issue or no issue?

"The IEC standard unifies several national standards, thereby improving the interchangeability of fuses in international trade." Apart from the strange physical shapes and sizes which seem more "industrial" than "domestic."
