Abstract
A fusible link mounting method in which a fusible link is mounted onto a fusible link housing, and a leg portion of the fusible link and a terminal of an electric wire are tightened and connected together by a bolt. In the method, the bolt is previously tightened provisionally with respect to the fusible link housing, after then, the terminal including a bridge portion so formed as to be able to pass outside a head portion of the bolt provisionally tightened is slid and inserted in a direction right angles to the bolt tightening direction in a separate step to thereby position a connecting portion of the terminal between the head portion of the bolt and the leg portion of the fusible link, and, next, the bolt is actually tightened to thereby connect the leg portion of the fusible link and the connecting portion of the terminal to each other.
