ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a fusible link which assures that a fuse element is completely and firmly received in a housing without any occurrence of incorrect contact of a male terminal with an opponent female terminal. Lances slantwise extending from a fuse element received in a housing are engaged with stepped engagement portions. While a cover is fitted to the housing, a plurality of projections extending from the cover are brought in contact with electrical contact portions of the fuse element so that the fuse element is firmly received in the housing at a predetermined position. Consequently, the fuse element is reliably received in the housing in the double engaged state without an occurrence of incorrect insertion of the fuse element.
