What fuse is between the house and the transformer on the pole ?

In the electrical distribution system between a house and the transformer on a pole, there is typically no fuse specifically placed between the house and the transformer. The protection for the distribution line is usually provided by overcurrent protection devices such as fuses or circuit breakers located at the substation or distribution panel.

However, there may be fuses or other protective devices installed on the transformer itself or within the substation to safeguard the transformer and the distribution lines. These devices are designed to disconnect the transformer or the affected section of the distribution network in the event of a fault or overcurrent condition.

It’s important to note that the specific configuration and protective devices in an electrical distribution system can vary based on regional standards, utility practices, and the design of the distribution network. If you have concerns or questions about the electrical protection in your specific area, it’s recommended to contact the local utility company or a qualified electrician for accurate information.
