ABSTRACT:
A surface mount fuse includes a plurality of substrate/arc suppressive layers, a plurality of fusible elements positioned between the substrate/arc suppressive layers and terminations connected to the ends of the fusible elements, such that the fusible elements are electrically connected in parallel. The surface mount fuse has greater amperage and voltage ratings than similarly sized conventional surface mount fuses. Additionally, the surface mount fuse has increased interrupt breaking capacity and superior mechanical properties.
