Electrical connection box
An electrical connection box includes a fusible link including a pair of terminal portions, a plate-shaped conductive member, a first nut including a first flange portion and fastened to the conductive member by being screwed with a first screw member, a second nut including a second flange portion and fastened to the conductive member by being screwed with a second screw member, and a block that includes a holding portion holding the first flange portion and the second flange portion and holds the fusible link. The holding portion extends between the pair of terminal portions in a projecting direction of the terminal portions, and includes a first holding portion located on a back side in an insertion direction, a second holding portion located on an entrance side in the insertion direction, and a projecting portion allowing entry of the first flange portion and restricting entry of the second flange portion.
Multiple element fuse
Approaches herein provide a multiple element fuse including a first fuse element having a first pair of terminals joined by a first fusible link, and a second fuse element including a second pair of terminals joined by a second fusible link. The first pair of terminals may be directly physically coupled with the second pair of terminals. In some embodiments, the first pair of terminals and the second pair of terminals are stacked relative to one another and joined by one or more linking elements, thus causing the first fusible link and the second fusible link to extend parallel to one another. In some embodiments, a first plurality of terminal pairs are integrally linked adjacent one another along a same plane, and then subsequently coupled to a second plurality of terminal pairs.

Fuses with integrated metals
Fuse assemblies are disclosed. In one implementation, a fuse assembly may be disposed that includes a first portion of the second portion. The first portion may be formed of a first metal. The second portion may be formed of a second metal different from the first metal. The second metal may be copper, and the copper may be tin plated or silver plated.

Fuse assembly with replaceable casing
A fuse assembly includes a casing having two slots defined through the first end thereof, and a conductive member is located in the casing and has a first end extending through the second end of the casing. The conductive member includes two blades with a fuse connected therebetween. A cap is detachably mounted to the first end of the casing and has a light member connected thereto. The light member has a leg portion which is electrically connected to a second end of the conductive member. The cap includes two arms which are detachably hooked to two positioning members on two sides of the casing to ensure the connection between the cap and the casing. When the fuse is burned off, the light member lights on, the cap is removed from the casing, and is detachably connected to a new casing with a functional fuse therein.

Compact dual element fuse unit, module and fusible disconnect switch
An embodiment of a fuse module has been disclosed. The fuse module includes a housing and a fuse element assembly contained within the housing. The fuse element assembly includes at least one fuse element unit having a plurality of trigger mechanisms and a perforated strip electrically connected to the trigger mechanisms. Increased ampacity ratings in a more compact arrangement provides for fuse modules having increased current protection capability that, in turn, provides for improved disconnect switching capabilities.
