A current limiting fuse is disclosed wherein at least one fuse element is employed and each such fuse element is positioned in a narrow space filled with dielectric fluid adjacent a rigid electrically insulating member with a plurality of rupturable vents and a chamber on the opposite side of the member. The narrow space filled with dielectric fluid defines the arc constrictor while the chamber on the side of the member defines the plasma cooler space.
