Abstract
A socket assembly for a fuse connector comprises a first bus bar, a fuse bus bar, and a fuse holder. The first bus bar comprises a contact blade extending toward a proximal end of the socket assembly and a fuse contact assembly. The fuse bus bar comprises a first fuse contact assembly and a distal end positioned adjacently to a distal end of the socket assembly. The fuse holder is removably engaged with the socket assembly and comprises an end wall at a distal end of the fuse holder. The end wall is configured to pass through the fuse contact assembly of the first bus bar and through the first fuse contact assembly of the fuse bus bar when removed from or inserted into the socket assembly.
