ABSTRACT:
Fuse panel or bus bar assemblies for supporting a plurality of fuses within an automotive electrical system. The bus bar assembly is characterized by its rugged simplicity, enabling the simultaneous support of as many as 20 fuses. A non-conductive housing is provided for support of a pair of metallic bus bars, each bus bar having a plurality of downwardly bent tangs defined in its sides. The bus bars are mated 180.degree. out-of-phase and fitted together, such that in the individual pairs the downwardly bent tangs define a seat for the fuse blades. Adjacent electrical terminal receptacles are provided within the housing such that the fuse blades may contact the appliance terminal simultaneously with contact of the pairs of downwardly bent tangs.
