ABSTRACT:
A clip-on device for use with an over-voltage protector to protect telephones and other sensitive apparatus. The device comprises a housing in which is disposed in electrically insulated spaced array, electrical contact means and heat conduction means. Each of these means have portion external to the housing which detachably grasps the over-voltage protector. Movable elements disposed within the housing include electrically insulating fusible spacers. The housing clips onto the over-voltage protector and engages the respective electrodes thereof. A sustained overload condition causes the fusible spacers to fuse whereupon the movable elements operate to short the electrical contact means to ground.
