ABSTRACT:
A terminator device for a fusible element ribbon surrounding a switch in an interrupting module. The device is a conductive collar mountable to a terminal of the switch and an integral finger to which an end of the ribbon is attachable. One or more slotted tabs are also integral with the collar to engage and support fins holding the ribbon in a helix around the switch. The tabs may be deformed to lock the fins in place. The device, which may be a simple stamped part, thus mechanically and electrically mounts the ribbon and supports the fins, as well as electrically interconnecting the ribbon to the switch.
