It is permitted to place a fuse in an identified neutral line provided that
the "live" side is fused + special information/marking is given
> Having said that, the UK and some other parts of the world have a power
mains setup that allows for heavy earth fault currents from either pole. So
they use dual fused power cords.
Could you give an example of "dual fused" power cord? The British AC plug
is equipped with just one fuse connected to the "L" side. But as I
understand this "system" is used to protect their unique building wiring,
not the equipment.
