A housing of electrically insulating material has an internal cavity which communicates via an opening with the exterior. Two or more male or female terminals are carried by the housing, and one of these terminals is directly connected with a conductor a free end of which is connectable with an energy source or a user device. A pair of metallic spring clips are located in the cavity and hold by friction a replaceable fuse which is removable and insertable through the opening. One section of another electric conductor conductively connects the other terminal with one of the spring clips and another section is connected to the other of the spring clips and has a free end connectable with the energy source or the user device. A cover, in form of a separate, hingedly connected or integral member is provided on the housing and normally closes the opening of the cavity. A snap latch holds the cover in place, and the cover is advantageously transparent so that the fuse may be inspected without removing the cover.
