Abstract: Wiring harnessess are current feedback paths from the loads to a battery, thereby forming a closed-circuit. For each load, there are provided a current detector and a current control; each current detector compares the current input to a junction box to the output current from the corresponding load via a corresponding wiring harness, and outputs a normal state signal when the two currents are equal. When the input and output currents are at variance with each other, it outputs an abnormal state signal. Each current controller causes, upon receipt of the normal state signal, the input current to flow into the corresponding load along normal current path; upon receipt of the abnormal state signal, the input current is directed to flow to a current cutoff which includes a thermal device which is disposed in parallel with the current path and whose resistance value changes with temperature, thereby cutting off the flow of current to the load.

Abstract: A male terminal metal fixture having a tab with a standard thickness is disclosed which is of high quality, although the fixture comprises a thin mother metal plate. The metal fixture is provided with a tab portion (6) which is folded so that each of longitudinal side edges is opposed to each other. The tab portion (6) is provided with an outwardly bulged area with a certain width (7) on the rear side along the opposed longitudinal side edges by means of a bulged process simultaneously with a bending process. Thus, the tab portion (6) can obtain a standard thickness. Moreover, the tab portion (6) is provided with an inward support projection (8) on the outwardly bulged area. The projection (8) prevents the tab portion (6) from being deformed at a hollow space defined by folded side edges (9) and the bulged area (7). Accordingly, it is possible to reduce a weight and a production cost of the male terminal metal fixture and to maintain the metal fixture to be of high quality.
