Abstract
A fuse lock-out assembly for a battery pack is provided. The assembly includes a first housing having an interior region holding a manual service disconnect lower housing and a manual service disconnect upper housing therein. The assembly further includes a fuse holding housing coupled to the first housing that has a first fuse compartment holding a first fuse therein. The assembly further includes a slidable door that slides from a first operational position to a second operational position. The slidable door covers an open end of the first fuse compartment at the first operational position, and extends over a portion of the manual service disconnect lower housing at the second operational position only if the manual service disconnect upper housing is previously de-coupled from the lower housing.
