Any sparky's around? Fuse wire question...

[Bishop Zinedine]

Lights downstairs have gone out and it's the fuse that's gone.

Got none of the 5A cartridges left and can't be arsed to go out and get any. Wrapping a bit of 5A fuse wire round it will work won't it?

Or will I kill myself and family?

Or will it simply not work

it will work but not rite is it?, also fuse wire is the worst protection you can have on a circuit.
