Fuse boxes

I am considering fitting a modern fuse box as ebay item 230321114276.

Has anyone done this?
If so how have you got round the problem of connecting the each of the lugs on the input side so that the outputs are all live especially on the accessory side where there is only one live input wire.

Many thanks

If you wish to protect certain circuits you could always wire in in line fuses as is done with the lighting circuit on later Minors

Hi there, you can either solder a piece of copper wire such as the earth from twin and earth cable across the terminals or make up a bridge wire. Take a wire, cut it and crimp the two ends in to one spade female connector. you then take one end add another wire so you have two ends, crimp on a connector and continue all the way along so you loop from one end to the other. If you do this you need to make sure that the wire is big enough to take the load. If not sure take both ends of the looping bridge back to the supply so you have in effect a ring circuit. If this makes no sense at all PM me and ill send a picture.
