Disclosed is a circuit protection device including a case, a negative temperature coefficient thermistor which is accommodated in the case and includes a resistant heating element, a pair of electrodes installed on both sides of the resistant heating element, and a first lead wire and a second lead wire withdrawn from the pair of electrodes, respectively, and a thermal fuse which is accommodated in the case and includes a thermal fuse body and a third lead wire and a fourth lead wire connected to both ends of the thermal fuse body, respectively. Here, the second lead wire and the third lead wire are connected to each other in the case.

A fuse including a fuse body, a fusible element disposed within the fuse body providing an electrically conductive pathway extending between a first end of the fuse body and a second end of the fuse body, and a heat shield disposed within the fuse body intermediate an interior surface of the fuse body and an exterior surface of the fuse body for mitigating heat flow therebetween.

A fuse includes a protective housing and a measurement device. Two electrical connection elements of the fuse are routed out of the protective housing and at least one fuse element is arranged in the protective housing, the at least one fuse element electrically conductively connecting the two electrical connection elements in the protective housing to one another. The measurement device includes a sensor element to record a physical state measured value of the fuse and a transmission apparatus to transmit the measured value to a reception device arranged outside the fuse. The measurement device further includes a dedicated housing in which the sensor element is received and held, the dedicated housing being mechanically connected to the protective housing. An overall installation space required for the protective housing and the dedicated housing corresponds to an installation space of a standardized NH fuse. The fuse is usable for retrofit applications.
