ABSTRACT:
A fuseholder of the bayonet-type for retaining tubular fuses is provided with a cap insert having a radial projection adjacent its open end, and a radially-projecting tab means adjacent its open end. The projection and tab cooperate with a body contact having a tip portion and a notch, the tab latching in the notch, and the radial projection bearing against the tip portion, so that electrical continuity is not lost if the cap portion of the fuseholder is accidentally depressed. A symmetrical spring means having a central portion and identical reduced-diameter end portions may be used in such a fuseholder, and simplifies the assembly of the fuseholder by eliminating the necessity for a predetermined endwise alignment of the spring at assembly.
