Claims6
An in-line fuse holder for a fuse comprising:
- a body having a first end and an opposite second end;
- first and second electrical contacts disposed on the first end, each configured to receive and grip a blade of a blade fuse;
- first and second quick-connect electrical terminals disposed on the second end, each configured to receive an end of a wire and electrically connect the wire to a respective one of the first and second electrical contacts;
- a cover having a receptacle through a first end thereof in which the first end of the body is removably receivable to enclose a fuse connected to the first and second electrical contacts;
- a seal disposed on the body for creating a sealing contact with the cover when the first end is received in the receptacle, thereby creating a sealed enclosure that
- prevents water contact with the fuse and the first and second electrical contacts;
- a mounting tab extending from the cover and a hole formed through the
- mounting tab;
- a resilient clip disposed on the body;
- and
- a tab disposed on the cover, wherein the resilient clip is engageable with the tab to secure the body and cover together.
