Fig. 36 (a) and (b) shows the construction of the Edisonfuse plug. The fuse f is mounted in a porcelain or glassholder and attached to the screw terminal s and the con-tact/. These plugs screw into the receptacles on the fuseblock, and whenever a fuse blows,-a new plug is inserted. Fig. 37 (a) shows a three-wire main Mock and Fig. 37 (b)a three-wire branch block. Fig. 37 (c) shows three two-wire double branch blocks grouped together to form adistributing center. The advantages of this type of fuseare that it is enclosed and that it gives good contact betweenthe fuse and the fuse-block terminals. On the other hand,it is somewha
