ABSTRACT:
A fuse-box which is reduced in size and which is designed so that the electric cable extends straight from the fuse-box. In the box body (21), a fuse-receiving portion (3) is provided in an upper surface of the box body (21) and electric-cable-end receiving portions (10) are produced in a lower surface of the box body (21). Further, screwing opening portions (8) are provided in opposite sides of the box body (21) so that a round terminal (17), connected to an electric cable (16) and disposed in the electric-cable-end receiving portion (10), is fixedly tightened to a screw-driven terminal (7) of the fuse (2) in the fuse-receiving portion (3) by a screw member (18). Further, an electric cable-fixing member (32) is provided so as to extend down from the box body (21) so that the electric cable (16), attached to the electric-cable-end receiving portion (10), is fixed vertically along the electric cable-fixing member (32). On the other hand, a lower cover (22) attached to the lower surface (24) of the box body (21) has electrically insulating covers (12) for covering the screwing opening portions (8), and a bottom wall portion (5) having an electric cable lead-out opening (36) through which the electric cable (16) passes to the outside.
