A fuse including a fuse body having a base with a central portion and first and second sidewalls, the central portion having first and second fastening holes formed therethrough, a mid-body disposed atop the central portion and having first and second troughs formed in a top surface thereof and separated by a partition wall, the mid-body further having first and second through holes formed therethrough, and a cover disposed atop the mid-body and having a central portion and first and second sidewalls, the central portion having first and second fastening bosses extending therefrom and through the first and second through holes of the mid-body and the first and second fastening holes of the base, and a conductive portion including first and second terminal portions connected by parallel first and second fuse members disposed within the first and second troughs of the mid-body and separated by the partition wall.

A circuit board with integrated fusing includes an insulating substrate having a circuit trace formed on a surface thereof, the circuit trace including a first circuit trace portion and a second circuit trace portion. A fusible link electrically connects the first circuit trace portion to the second circuit trace portion, the fusible link including a planar surface extending from the first circuit trace portion to the second circuit trace portion. A dielectric reflow encapsulates the fusible link on the planar surface from the first circuit trace portion to the second circuit trace portion.

A fuse assembly includes a housing and a wound wire operable as a fusible element. The housing has a cavity for the fusible element. The fusible element is formed by coating a wire with enamel and wrapping the wire around a core to produce enamel-coated wound wire. The enamel-coated wound wire is attached to the housing. The core is etched away until the core is dissolved and the enamel is stripped away.
