Abstract:
A fuse link assembly for fusing a conductor comprises a fuse link terminal having a reduced cross section at a central portion thereof, and having first and second female connectors disposed at opposite end portions thereof. The female connectors respectively receive first and second male tab terminals therein. The male terminals include wire barrel portions which accept the end portions of the conductor. A snap-on housing encloses the assembly and provides a thermal barrier between the central portion of the fuse link terminal and the inner chamber of the housing, and therefore, the environment of the fuse assembly.
