ABSTRACT:
A fuse apparatus for a vehicle has a greatly reduced number of wire harnesses, particularly around a steering column where operational switches are concentrated and a fuse box where circuits are concentrated, for lowering the cost of the electrical system, making the electrical system small and light and mitigating assembling work thereof. The fuse apparatus comprises a fuse box provided on the steering column and having a fuse to be connected with an operational switch on the steering column, and a coupling terminal provided on the fuse box, connected with the fuse. The operational switch is directly attached to the fuse box with a coupling terminal of the switch coupled to the coupling switch on the fuse box whereby a wire harness conventionally provided between the fuse box and the operational switch is eliminated.
