ABSTRACT:
A panel mountable fuse holder for cartridge-type electrical fuses features a one-piece side terminal connection and a one-piece rear terminal connection. Both are configured for radial snap-in engagement with the fuse holder body. A novel capture mechanism in a sleeve disposed within an insertion knob assembly provides electrical contact to the forward fuse terminal without unduly stressing substantially misaligned caps. The capture mechanism also provides moderate rotational torque to the fuse during insertion, whereby the fuse is partially rotated to provide improved electrical contact to a planar ring structure integral with the rear terminal connection.
