FUSE TERMINAL BLOCK WITH ALTERNATIVE MEANS FOR CONNECTION TO FUSE BLADE CONTACTS

摘要

This specification discloses an automobile fuse terminal block for receiving fuses and electrical connections to various electrical components of the automobile. The terminal block has a passage for receiving the blade contacts of a fuse. Electrical contact to the fuse blade can be accomplished either from the front or rear of the terminal block. First, a fuse holder positioned in the passage can contact the blade contacts of a fuse. Access to the fuse holder can be both from the front and the rear of the terminal block thus providing for contact to the fuse blade both from the front and the rear without the need for removing the fuse. Second, a connector adapter entering an access from the back of the terminal block extends sufficiently into the access to provide mating with the blade connector of the fuse.
