ABSTRACT:
The fuse element of a thermal fuse and heater assembly is connected in series in the energizing circuit of the generator field winding of an electrical generating system between the field winding and the current carrying elements of an associated voltage regulator output switch. System potential is applied across circuitry responsive to system overvoltage conditions for completing an energizing circuit for the heater element of the thermal fuse and heater assembly. With sustained system overvoltage conditions, the heater element heats the thermal fuse element to a temperature at which the fuse element "burns out" to interrupt the generator field winding energizing circuit.
