ABSTRACT:
A fused plug (12) of the add-on type includes a body shell (13') formed of integral one-piece molded construction. The shell has a recess (23) opening forwardly. A fuse site body (27) is receivable within the recess. The fuse site body includes longitudinal recesses (39, 39') at opposite sides for receiving blade plugs (20, 20') in mutually secured relationship. Fuse-receiving recesses (32, 32') are defined in the forward end of the fuse site body for receiving a pair of miniature cartridge fuses (33, 33') with one end of each of the fuses electrically contacting a respective blade plug. The fuse site body also provides for electrical connection of wire leads (36, 36') with opposite ends of the fuses, such leads extending through an opening in the shell. The fuse site body is provided with projections (29) which fit into apertures (30) on opposite walls of the body shell for locking the fuse site body within the body shell in mutually secured relationship. A fuse cover (22), which includes a spring on its inner surface, covers the recess opening for pressing the fuses into their recesses, and prevents the user from having access to the fuses without first unplugging the plug blades from an electrical receptacle.
