Abstract

Embodiments of the present invention provide tools for installing and extracting fuses. In one embodiment, the tool has an elongate handle. A guideway spans the length of the handle, and a pair of jaws, adapted to retain the fuse, protrudes from an end of the handle. A rod is disposed within the guideway and is selectively actuatable within the guideway for releasing the fuse from the jaws.
