Abstract

A fuse holder with a reject spring which will only accept a ferrule type fuse with an annular groove in the ferrule at one end. The reject member is a reinforcing spring located externally of the fuse clip on the fuse holder with ears on each side extending through complementary openings in each side of the fuse clip to engage the groove in the fuse. Flanges extend outwardly of the reinforcing spring to engage the side walls of the molding or body of the fuse holder as the fuse passes through the upper restriction of the fuse clip to prevent displacement of the ears on the spring from inside the fuse clip.
