Abstract: An electrical switch having an activation component that closes and opens contact points within a switch housing. The activation component can include a front end and a rear end. The rear end can be within the switch housing and the front end can protrude from the switch housing. The front end of the activation component can include a fuse slot. A fuse can be placed in the fuse slot and removed from the fuse slot. A rubber cover can be removably attachable to the outside of the fuse slot to protect a fuse within the fuse slot.

Abstract: A fusible switching disconnect device includes a switch housing and terminal cover therefore that blocks access to a line side fuse clip and prevents insertion of a rectangular fuse module when switch contacts in the device are closed. An interlock element further presents the fuse from being retracted when the switch contacts are closed.

Abstract: A fusible switch disconnect device includes a housing adapted to receive at least one fuse therein, and switchable contacts for connecting the fuse to circuitry. A tripping mechanism is provided to disconnect the switchable contacts when predetermined circuit conditions occur.

Abstract: A fuse holder which has a plurality of fuses to be automatically and sequentially connected into an electrical network on failure of an operatively positioned fuse so that transient current surges can be prevented from damaging equipment in the network and from unnecessarily closing down the network for manual repair, the fuse holder having a carrier biased for relative rotation with respect to contacts in the network and fuses with latching contact mechanisms releasable on rupture of the fuse to permit rotation of the carrier.

Abstract: A combined cartridge fuse holder and switch employs a novel switching mechanism including a pair of spaced bars arranged in a first plane and positioned adjacent an inclined ramp. A contact pin is mounted in a switch arm, which in turn is pivotally mounted so that the pin can be moved from an OFF position in which the pin rests on the inclined ramp to an ON position resting on and bridging the contact bars. One of the contact bars is electrically coupled to a first terminal while the other of the contact bars is electrically coupled through a fuse to a second terminal.
