Abstract: A fuse module including a mounting block formed of an electrically insulating material, the mounting block having a rear wall extending from a base, a fuse plate including an electrically conductive bus bar disposed adjacent a rear surface of the rear wall, a fusible element electrically connected to the bus bar and disposed adjacent a front surface of the rear wall, and a fuse terminal electrically connected to the fusible element and extending onto a top of the base. The fuse module may further include an electrically conductive terminal post extending from the top of the base through the fuse terminal for facilitating connection to an electrical component.

Abstract: A fuse is disclosed, the fuse made of a first metal, such as copper, and having a notched portion with an alloying element, such as tin, deposited in the notch. The alloying element helps to lower the voltage drop across the notch, allowing the fuse to generate less heat during operation without affecting its ability to protect a circuit to which it is connected. The fuse may also include a housing and terminals to connect into a circuit.

Abstract: A locating and monitoring system includes transmitters worn by a person, animal, or equipment to transmit an unique identification code while moving about a facility. The code is transmitted by pulse bursts at diverse times during predetermined time intervals to prevent synchronization with resident signals in the facility. Receivers in the walls or ceilings of the facility respond to the infrared radiation of the pulse bursts and validate the identification code by a checksum of the code through a comparison with a checksum transmitted with the code. The receivers deliver validated codes to arbitrators and receive back signals indicative of the level of an individual assigned to a class wearing the transmitters. Signals from the receivers are received by arbitrators which forward the codes to a CPU for recording start and stop events indicative of movement by transmitters into and out of the reception range of the various receivers.
