They prevent fire, protect wiring, warn you of overloaded circuits, or indicate the presence of short circuits. Fuses may blow out because: 1. There are too many appliances or lights on a sin gle circuit of wiring. 2. Light or appliance cords may be broken, frayed or wet. 3. Appliances may be overloaded (as may happen if you start your washer while clothes are in the wringer). If electrical service quits in any part of your home, check fuses first (always make sure you have an extra rupply on hand). Jf all the lights in the house are out, look out the win dow to see whether neighbors’ lights are also out. If they are not, the trouble is probably in your own ho”se. Check outlets, cords, etc. (especially the ones you were using when the electricity failed) to see wheth er anv are broken, frayed or wet. Disconnect the ©Sending cord BEFORE replacing the fuse. You con sometimes tell whether a fuse is blown by examining the top to see if it is discolored, or an in side wire is burend in two. Touching only the top of the fuse, unsqrew the burn ed-out one and screw in a new one of the proper size —15-ampere capacity is correct for circuits serving wall outlets, lights and small appliances. NEVER place a penny under the fuse plug; you may set the house on fire if you do! Some houses have circuit breakers instead of fuses. These automatically “trip” when circuits are over loaded. To re-install service, push the switch which indicates “tripped” as far as possible beyond “off” position, then switch to “on.” EUGENE WATER'S: ELECTRIC BOARD MUNICIPAL UTILITIES YOUR OWN UTILITY SYSTEMS 1116 Willamette Eugene, Oregon Phone 1640 KOAC Features Famed Concerto Richard Addinsell’s “Warsaw Concerto,” will be presented by Mrs. Zonda Montgomery on her KOAC program at 6:30 tonight.
