Abstract
A combined cartridge fuse holder and switch employs a novel switching mechanism including a pair of spaced bars arranged in a first plane and positioned adjacent an inclined ramp. A contact pin is mounted in a switch arm, which in turn is pivotally mounted so that the pin can be moved from an OFF position in which the pin rests on the inclined ramp to an ON position resting on and bridging the contact bars. One of the contact bars is electrically coupled to a first terminal while the other of the contact bars is electrically coupled through a fuse to a second terminal.
