Abstract: An electrical disconnect apparatus includes a housing having a first conductor configured to electrically connect to a first external circuit and a second conductor configured to electrically connect to a second external circuit; and a connection device having an elongated portion structured to be inserted into and removed from the housing. The elongated portion of the connection device includes a fuse having a first conductive end portion and a second conductive end portion electrically connected by a fusible element. The fuse electrically connects the first conductor to the second conductor when the elongated portion of the connection device is inserted into the housing and electrically disconnects the first conductor from the second conductor when the elongated portion of the connection device is removed from the housing.
