ABSTRACT:
A fuse holder assembly for a cylindrical fuse of the type including a fusible link retained in an insulative sleeve. The assembly includes first and second insulated conductors, first and second metallic terminal elements for attachment to the end of the conductors and including a receiving end for holding one end of the fuse. The assembly further includes first and second sleeves of resilient insulative material for receiving corresponding conductors in an interference fit with each sleeve being slidable along the outside surface of the conductor. A first cap of relatively rigid insulative material includes a barrel defining a cavity for receiving the first terminal element with the cap having a facing end portion and a remote end portion. The cap includes an intermediate internal ledge positioned between the end portions for abutting the fuse-receiving end of the terminal element, and a remote internal ledge positioned at the remote end portion of the cap for abutting a sleeve. The remote ledge defines an opening for passage of the first conductor. A substantially similar second cap is also provided for longitudinal movement towards the first cap thereby causing the fuse to be received in the fuse-receiving portions of the terminal elements and with the sleeves bearing against their corresponding remote ledges of the caps, to provide a degree of water resistance.
