Yea, I was there this morning replacing this cluster, but I was pressed for time I only snapped a couple shots after I had everything done..... cleaned up, cover on and ready to roll. Went out, grabbed camera, and took 3-4 pix. Not much to show.... and I'm too lazy right now to go out to the truck and get the memory card out of the camera.

It wasn't keyless. It had a pullchain on it, but it was pulled back and was dangling in the 8b box!
Also notice the black tape over the receptacle........

So I suppose whoever is was did not have the correct size breaker in the panel so he stuck the right size fuse in the lampholder?

I'd say the panel didn't have any more breaker spaces, so some numbskull tapped off the 40a range breaker and installed a 15a fuse.

Only....... the hack-assed fuseholder was wired backwards. The white (silver) terminal went to the breaker, and the black (brass) one went to the load.

So as for the fuse holder in the pullchain............. I've seen that before. A guy had a set up like that for a window A/C unit. His line side was tied directly to the line side of the utility meter and the circuit was protected by the fuse. Free air conditioning.
