   Hello, and I reside in a small condo unit that is in effect a spruced-up   
   (except for electrical) apartment building.  Beyond the electric meter   
   for my unit there are two cartridge-type fuses, one circuit goes through   
   that 30 amp non-tamp (rejection base) fuse we've been discussing and the   
   other circuit goes through a 20 amp non-tamp fuse that feeds a single   
   120 volt outlet that is apparently intended for a window A/C.  IOW, if   
   that 30 amp fuse blows all power except for the A/C is out within my   
   appartment.  There are no 240 volt outlets anywhere in my apartment.   
   There is also a small wall-recessed two-fuse panel inside my apartment   
   that further divides what comes off that 30 amp circuit.  Sincerely,
