<p>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a fuse element capable of being cut with a method different from the conventional cutting method and to provide a cutting method of the same.SOLUTION: The fuse element has a structure including: movable electrodes 9, 10 and a fixed electrode 6 constituting a fuse wire formed through an air gap 5 of a predetermined interval; a voltage application electrode 11 respectively connected to; and a projection whose tip is insulating and whose tip neighborhood is conductive. By applying a predetermined voltage to a voltage application electrode, the movable electrode and the fixed electrode are brought into contact by Coulomb force and the fuse wire is cut by atmospheric discharge.</p> |
