£4 RICHARDSON'S BLUEBOOK OF PROJECTION forms: link, cartridge and plug. (76) The link fuse is used in metal cabinets wherever local regulations require them for projection circuits because it is difficult to "boost" them without the trick being immediately evident upon inspection. Cartridge Fuses (77) A cartridge fuse consists of two brass or copper terminals joined by fuse wire inclosed in a paper barrel filled with a powdered non-inflammable insulating material. Inside this barrel, embedded in the Figure 23 • powder, is a pilot wire which is much smaller than the main fuse wire. It always passes immediately under a paper label pasted on the surface of the fuse barrel. The object of this is that when the main fuse wire melts the pilot will also melt, and in the process will scorch the paper label so that the melted fuse may be identified at once. This usually works out all right, but not always. An unburned label is not positive proof that a fuse is not blown. In Fig. 23 we see two forms of cartridge fuse contact, namely the ferrule A and the knife blade B, together with their receptacles. In Fig. 24 we have a view of the construction details of a cartridge fuse of ferrule contact type. The knife blade fuse is exactly the same, except for its contacts.' The drawing is self explanatory.
