Abstract

An electrically conductive fuse element (1) including fusible portions has a hinge portion (3) provided at a middle portion thereof. A resin body is divided into resin body parts (4,5) so that the resin body parts are provided around the fuse element (1) in such a way as to be separated by the hinge portion (3). One of the resin body parts is bent from the hinge portion. The fuse element has abutting faces, against which the resin body parts are abutted in a bent state, and engaging means for the resin body parts. A connector housing (21) is provided on the resin body part. Further, a terminal is provided at one of plate portions of the fuse element. Power supply connecting portions and terminal connecting portions are provided in the other plate portion connected to the plate portion through the hinge portion.
