Surely the other wiring would burn out before the fuse blew? I used to do lighting at the local AmDram and I overloaded what was supposed to be a 20A circuit. Sadly, the electrician had put an 80A fuse in and it burnt out the new wiring that I'd just run! I had a very fast and sweaty time running about in the ceiling with a fire extinguisher putting burning cobwebs and tar paper off the roofing. So, I don't do lighting down there any more and the electrician left town too.
