ABSTRACT:
A fuse clip is described for securing a fuse to a base and making electrical contact with fuse terminals, comprising a U-shaped contact clip having a bight portion positioned between two opposing legs. The bight portion, which provides a surface adjacent to the base, is initially arched away from the base and has an aperture to receive a fastening member for securing the contact clip to the base. Upon tightening the fastening member and securing the clip to the base, the fastening member causes the bight portion to flatten and the legs to be drawn towards one another. Thus, upon fastening, the legs are drawn from an initially extended position to a more contracted position.
