Abstract
A terminal busbar includes a first busbar portion having a coupling plate, and a second busbar portion having a top plate portion, and a fusible member coupled to and between the coupling plate and the top plate portion. The fusible member has a first portion with a groove or an aperture disposed therein. The terminal busbar further includes an overmolded thermoplastic layer encapsulating the first portion of the fusible member and the groove or the aperture. A thickness of the overmolded thermoplastic layer both above and underneath the fusible member is greater than a thickness of the fusible member to prevent secondary arcing.
