ABSTRACT:
A fuse comprises a thin metal strip of constant thickness mounted on an insulating support and having relatively wide portions mutually spaced apart and interconnected by a relatively narrow portion constituting a fusible link which overlies a recess or aperture in the support so that the fusible link is spaced apart from the support surface. Preferably, the strip is folded about one end of the support with the fusible link remote from the fold, the relatively wide portions extending around the fold on each side of the support to constitute tab contacts for mating with a receptacle.
