Abstract
A fuse (20) includes a fuse element (25), having a fusible portion (22) provided between inner side edges (21a) of a pair of parallel flat-plate terminal portions (21, 21), and an insulating housing (23) covering the inner side edges (21a) of the flat-plate terminal portions (21) and the fusible portion (22). A middle portion (21f) of each of the flat-plate terminal portions (21), located at the lateral position relative to the fusible portion (22), is fixedly gripped by a mating terminal (11) of a fuse mounting portion, so that the flat-plate terminal portion is electrically connected to the mating terminal.
