Abstract: A fuse state indicator for a cascading fuse multiple discharge device including a fiber optic cable having a first end, a second end, and an intermediate segment. The intermediate segment is configured for attachment to a fuse assembly of a fuse panel where the fuse panel is arranged for physically severing the intermediate segment of the fiber optic cable in response to discharge of the fuse assembly.

Abstract: A device and method of use of a multiple discharge panel for a multiple-discharge, high energy electric device. The device generally uses a panel for a multiple-discharge, high energy electric device that includes a plurality of fuse assemblies constructed in a cascading arrangement in a common panel. Each fuse assembly provides protection from a single high energy discharge pulse and includes a structure defining a cavity. The fuse assembly further contains a resistor made of components that explode when subjected to a large pulse of power to temporarily interrupt and dissipate the large pulse of power. The structure defining the cavity is shaped to deform in response to explosion of the resistor such that a new connection to a remaining one of the plurality of fuse assemblies is established.

Abstract: A case for a compact disc comprised of a cavity-providing member formed from upper and lower surfaces that are joined to one another on at least one adjacent side and a disc-supporting member providing a protruding CD holding tray that rotates into the cavity-providing member by means of pivot with an axis normal to the plane of the CD case allowing the two members to come together, forming an image at their junction as well as providing protection for, and easy access to, the contained CD.
