A fuse includes an integrated measuring function. In an embodiment, the fuse includes a fuse housing which in turn has a first receiving space delimited by a pressure body and a second receiving space which is spatially separated from the first receiving space and is delimited by a protective body, the first and second receiving spaces being arranged one behind the other in a direction of longitudinal extent. A fusible conductor is accommodated and mounted in the first receiving space and a measuring device is accommodated and mounted in the second receiving space. The measuring device has a current transformer and an electronic assembly which is electrically conductively connected to the current transformer. The current transformer and the electronic assembly are arranged one behind the other in the direction of longitudinal extent.

A novel fuse assembly design utilizes a fuse body, single-piece terminal assembly and a two-piece endbells. The terminal assembly is disposed within the fuse body and includes first and second opposing surfaces with a fuse element extending between a first terminal and a second terminal. The endbell, to be connected to the fuse body, includes first and second endbell portions. Formed within the first endbell portion is a first receptacle and extending from the first endbell portion is a first protrusion. Formed within the second endbell portion is a second receptacle and extending from the second endbell portion is a second protrusion. When the two endbell portions are fastened to one another with the terminal assembly sandwiched between them, the first protrusion engages the second receptacle and the second protrusion engages the first receptacle.
