FUSED JAW BLADE FOR WATTHOUR METER SOCKET ADAPTER

摘要

A fused jaw blade for use as a line or load jaw blade in a watthour meter socket adapter has a fuse body with a first lug extending from a first end and a second lug in the form of a blade terminal extending from an opposite second end. The second lug or blade terminal is adapted for releasable mounting in a watthour meter socket jaw contact. A jaw contact is formed with the first lug for receiving a blade terminal of a watthour meter or other electrical device therein. The jaw contact is formed by a pair of contact clips mounted on opposite sides of the first lug and having outer ends extending beyond the end of the first lug for receiving a blade terminal therein. Biasing springs are fixedly mounted to the contact clips. Alternately, a single contact clip is fixedly mounted on the first lug to form a complete jaw contact.
