During the abnormal tests in primary circuit, internal input fuse
operates and glass breaks. However, fuse is inside the tubing and
broken glass does not spread around.
This indicates that the fuse is being used beyond its safe interrupting
current rating. To meet most safety standards, components must be used
within their ratings, so your scenario is not allowed. What happens to
the glass is irrelevant.
How can the fuse be safely replaced? The tubing must be damaged by the
explosion (yes, it IS an explosion).
