One more photo. This one was a destroyed fuse that was a pain to find. One of the blades had come off the fuse. The shunt bar was still good and a test light lit on both sides. The 30 amp shunt in the fuse was good probably because the load wasn't that great, but the blades didn't fit tight in the aftermarket holder allowing a lot of heat to do damage. After several problems with the standard fuse holders arcing out on fuses, I go with a Maxi-Fuse holder using the large fuses (but still rated at the proper amperage).
