Burning rate of fuses
False idea as to burning rate of fuse being 1 ft per min is directly responsible for many so-called premature explosives accidents; fuse in modern commercial use is manufactured in two standard burning rates of speed, 90 sec per yd and 120 sec per yd (30 sec and 40 sec per ft); factors influencing burning rate; examples of accidents with fuse; in general, it is safer to assume that burning rate is 2 ft per min.
