Each distribution transformer has its own fuse sized based on its maximum current. In Canada say you have a 75 kva transformer (about as big as theyll use on a pole) with lets say 7500v on the primary (power line) feeding 240v split phase secondary which is center tapped so you get 2 lines at 120v and one neutral that is system grounded at the pole. A 75 kva transformer could easily supply up to 3 homes each having 200A services. 75 000 va (volt amps , similar to watts but other factors involved) divided by 7500v is only 10A. That fuse would be 10x 1.25 so itd most likely be 15A fuse on the primary. BUT for a fault on the secondary to create over 15A on the primary is a whole nother deal. On the secondary side you again take 75 000 va this time divide by 240v and you get 312.5 A , to create a 15A current on that primary itd take 390A fault on the secondary. BIG boom!

Today's Featured Article - Earthmaster Project Progress Just a little update on my Earthmaster......it's back from the dead! I pulled the head, and soaked the stuck valves with mystery oil overnight, re-installed the head, and bingo, the compression returned. But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
