Oops, I seem to left the problem out. The manufacturer now puts a rib in the spare fuse holder so you cannot put a spare fuse in. Sorry for the confusion.

We use an AC input module that includes a power switch and fuse holder. The fuse holder is a separate piece that is inserted in the module it also allowed storage for a spare fuse. In our product we shipped them with a spare fuse in order to benefit the customer in case they needed it. The intent was that in case they did blow the fuse that they would have an identical and properly rated replacement fuse available to them. This would hopefully eliminate or reduce the risk of putting an improperly rated fuse in the module. I received a letter from the manufacturer indicating that the design change was made in order to comply with IEC60320. It seems to me that we have now introduced a additional risk, it just doesn't make sense to me. Any comments?
