Provided is a fuse device used for high rating and high current applications excellent in impact resistance at the time of current interruption, and capable of preventing falling off of the case. The fuse device includes: a base member; a cover member fitted to the base member and covering a surface of the base member; and a fuse element mounted on the surface of the base member; wherein one of the base member and the cover member is provided with a side wall intersecting with the plane of the surface of the base member and including an opening formed therein, and the other of the base member and the cover member is provided with a fitting projection projecting outward from a plane intersecting with the plane of the surface of the base member and fitted into the opening of the side wall.

A three phase surge protection device is disclosed. In an embodiment a device include a stack comprising a first varistor, a second varistor and a third varistor, wherein the varistors are electrically connected to form a circuit and a first thermal disconnect configured to interrupt the circuit when a temperature of the first thermal disconnect exceeds a predefined temperature.

A transient electronic device includes electronic elements (e.g., an SOI- or chip-based IC) and a trigger mechanism disposed on a frangible glass substrate. The trigger mechanism includes a switch that initiates a large trigger current through a self-limiting resistive element in response to a received trigger signal. The self-limiting resistive element includes a resistor portion that generates heat in response to the trigger current, thereby rapidly increasing the temperature of a localized (small) region of the frangible glass substrate, and a current limiting portion (e.g., a fuse) that self-limits (terminates) the trigger current after a predetermined amount of time, causing the localized region to rapidly cool down. The frangible glass substrate is engineered such that a stress profile produced by the rapid heating/cooling of the localized region generates an initial fracture force that subsequently propagates throughout the glass substrate, whereby sufficient potential energy is released to powderize the electronic elements.
