They not only could MU with them, they often did. It makes no difference whether a circuit is completed using a fuse in the line or a circuit breaker. Fuses and circuit breakers serve the same function, namely to open a circuit in the event of an electrical overload. If a fuse blows, however, the blown fuse will have to be removed and replaced with a new one which may not be able to be done right away and the train would have to proceed to a location where a car inspector could replace it. If a circuit breaker trips, the crew member in the cab where it is located can reset it immediately and barring a second failure proceed down the road. |
