Abstract

An electrical fuse assembly includes electrically conductive first and second electrodes, and a bimetallic fuse element. The bimetallic fuse element electrically connects the first and second electrodes. The bimetallic fuse element is configured to disintegrate, and thereby disconnect the first electrode from the second electrode, in response to a current exceeding a prescribed trigger current of the bimetallic fuse element for at least a prescribed duration.
