ABSTRACT:
A fail-safe secondary fuse device for assuring the grounding of a conductive gas tube used in modular protection devices for individual subscriber circuit pairs. The device resiliently engages each of the three end and center electrodes normally provided on the tube. In the case of the end electrodes, the device is insulated from direct electrical communication by a fusible sleeve of insulative material which fuses under heat emanating from the gas tube with the occurrence of continued current overload.
