ABSTRACT:
A chemically augmented electrical fuse is triggered using optical energy acquired as a result of the triggering of another chemically augmented fuse. Light energy created as a result of the detonation of the first chemically augmented fuse is conducted to an exothermic pellet of a second fuse. The light energy received at the second fuse is focused on the exothermic pellet by means of a lens. The focused light energy causes the detonation of the exothermic pellet in the second fuse thereby causing the interruption of current through that fuse.
