Abstract: A fuse holder for a cylindrical fuse with a tubular body and conductive metal end caps is disclosed where the holder includes a molded base and metal terminals. The base is adapted to carry a pair of terminals in spaced apart alignment to receive at least one fuse, but a plurality of fuses can be carried in parallel rows on a common base between aligned pairs of terminals. Notched lines are positioned between the rows to define lines of weakness for severance of the molded base providing at least one fuse holder and terminal pair. The configuration of one fuse holder is elongated and rectangular with the molded base having a generally flat center and raised ends. The terminals are identical in shape and snap fit to the ends of the base between a pair of upstanding legs which form a channel for alignment with the axis of the fuse. Each terminal has a squat U shape in end profile and includes four spring fingers to hold the fuse end cap against the terminal base which is the flat bottom part of the U.

Abstract: A rejection-type fuse block is disclosed for use with Class CC cartridge-type fuses having ferrules at opposite ends, the ferrule at one end having a cap of smaller diameter than the ferrule. An insulated rejection collar having a rejection opening sized to allow the cap to pass therethrough while preventing passage of the ferrule is positioned between the fuse and an electrically conductive terminal. A leaf spring located at the end of the fuse opposite the cap end serves to axially press the fuse towards the insulated rejection collar and the cap into contact with the terminal. Fuse clips are provided for releasably securing the clip in proper position.

Abstract: A fuseholder assembly includes a two pole fuseholder having load side and line side sections housing a pair of inline fuses which connect respective load and line side terminals, and a breakaway receptacle that releasably joins the line side terminals to corresponding line conductors. The line side section of the fuseholder includes a boss on one side thereof and the load side section and breakaway receptacle each include mating grooves formed therein. The boss is received within both grooves when the fuseholder assembly is properly assembled to polarize the fuseholder sections with respect to one another and to polarize the attachment of the breakaway assembly to the line side fuseholder terminals.
