Abstract
An electric fuse of the type which has a tubular fuse casing and a solid fuse end terminal telescopically received within the fuse casing is provided with an annular seal which is contained within an annular groove formed in the outer lateral wall of the end terminal. The seal is formed from a settable material which has been injected into the groove through a seal injection opening in the outer end of the end terminal which extends from the axial outer end and into fluid communication with an annular groove provided in the end terminal. A seal material bleed opening is provided in the end terminal which also extends from the axial outer end of the end terminal and into fluid communication with the annular groove. The bleed opening is positioned substantially diametrically opposed to the seal injection opening.
