ABSTRACT:
A fuse tube is provided for cutout and power fuse assemblies. The fuse tube has a body with a red retroreflective portion and a white retroreflective portion. When conducting the red portion lies above the white portion. When the fuse blows, the white portion lies above the red portion. By observing whether the fuse tube has red over white or white over red, the condition of the fuse is determined. If the orientation is red over white, the fuse is all right. If the orientation is white over red, the fuse is dead, and needs to be replaced.
