GBC Barrel Type European Auto Fuses
GBC type European Auto fuses are roughly cylindrical in shape like glass tube fuses, but they are made primarily out of plastic or ceramic materials. Unlike glass tube fuses, the metal end caps of these fuses have pointed ends. That led to GBC type European Auto fuses being referred to as torpedoes.
These fuses were primarily used in older European automobile applications like BMW. They are still available for use in those older applications, but glass tube fuses with conical ends have also been developed as an alternative.Used in older European vehicles, these plastic barrel fuses have exposed metal fuse link. They install similar to a AA-type battery between two flat springs.

Lucas Fuses
Lucas – The much maligned Lucas wiring system is used on British vehicles, and of course they use different fuses from everyone else with a convoluted rating system. These are ceramic barrel fuses similar to the Bosch style. Where many people go wrong is confusing the “continuous fusing” rating (where the fuse pops) with the smaller rating of “continuous amps”, which is where fuse operates normally. When replacing a Lucas fuse with a non-Lucas glass-type fuse, you use the smallest rating for the new fuse.
