OK. Glad you got that off you chest. I still have serious doubts that a "hunk" of wire could become a fuse though.
Now before you go off on another "tangent", I too, have seen the "results" of DIY "inspiration" when it comes to running wire. If you honestly don't know what you're doing in the first place, listening to some "nimrod" on the phone for two hours explaining the "how to's" probably won't help either. What might take you three hours (and a whole lot of frustration) to do would take a seasoned installer (with all the right tools) about fifteen minutes. I think your house (and your piece of mind) is definitely worth the two hours the guy might charge for a "complex" run.
