Abstract: A chaser or cascade-effect icicle light set includes a transversely extending common wire portion, and a plurality of transversely spaced, parallel light strings depending from the common wire portion. Each light string defines a plurality of lamp sockets physically disposed in a series. The lamp sockets of the plurality of light strings are organized into a plurality of series-wired sets corresponding to given points along the lengths of the light strings. All lamp sockets of a given set within a given light string being electrically disposed in series. The number of the lamp sockets in each light string is an exact multiple of the number of sets. Controls for actuating and deactivating the sets successively produce a cascade wherein each set of each light string flashes on and off in substantially horizontal unison as a set to provide a cascade-effect.

Abstract: A multiple fuse device having a multiple fuse assembly within the device rotatable about an axis in fixed directions through at least a certain predetermined angle and having at least two rotational positions in which at least one fresh fuse is connected between an electrical source and a load circuit, the improvement characterized by the assembly having a body with a conductor carrying portion having a plurality of radially extending angularly spaced apart separate conductors carried by said portion, at least three adjacent ones of said conductors being connected in a set in series each to its adjacent conductor by fuse means and at least one of the conductors in this set being connected with the source and an adjacent conductor simultaneously being connected with the load circuit to fusibly connect one line of the load circuit with the electrical source when the assembly is in a selected rotational position.
