It may just be that I have led a sheltered life, but I don’t know exactly what’s so special about these:

Had a quick Google and found the gloso website, what you have is a circuit breaker not a fuse.

As others have said resetable, hence the button on top and protected by the molding. Yes a circuit breaker NOT a fuse ! Noel.
