I'm pretty sure there was an honorary darwin award given to a man who used a live .22 round to put in place as a fuse in his car. The angle was apparently just right to have the bullet hit both balls.
Wouldn't be possible unless the fusebox had a barrel.
True or not that would still make a hilarious "Fact or Fiction?" segment lol.

The fuse lobby is out to get us brother!
Yeah, that's what my dad said as well!
After he died?
Of course not, this was during the fire.
You could say it just doesn’t make cents.
That's for screw in fuses.

A .22lr fits in some 3AG fuse holders. They do produce an audible alert when they blow. I'm not sure what the current rating is though.

3AG is just the physical size of the fuse, they usually go up to 20 amps from memory.
Well i figure at least till a Dead short.
I can't tell what the 250 amp one is. Just random metal?
Crinkled/rolled metal foil, probably.
