ABSTRACT:
An electric fuse having a cartridge formed of a pair of semi-cylindrical casings, i.e., a body casing and a cover casing. The cover casing has a circumferential flat edge surface and a central ridge protruding above the flat surface, and the body casing has a circumferential flat edge surface and a central channel recessed therein for receiving the ridge section of the cover casing so as to form a passageway between the ridge section of the cover casing and the channel when the two casings are coupled to form the fuse cartridge. A fusible element is stretched diagonally between the ends of the body casing, passing through a pair of grooves in the edge surfaces at the end of the body casing, extending through the passageway and out through a pair of grooves disposed at the ends of the body casing, approximately in the middle thereof. The ends of the fusible element are soldered and capped or they may be soldered to the respective ends of a lead wire without end caps.
