ABSTRACT:
A blown fuse indicator, having an insulating element, a current-carrying element overlaying the insulating element, and a substantially transparent window. A chemical composition coats at least a portion of the insulating element. The improvement comprises a meltable link in generally parallel proximity to the insulating element. The meltable link, which can be made of solder, melts to open an indicating circuit of the blown fuse indicator upon predetermined thermal overload conditions.
