ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A time-lag fuse is provided which exhibits improved breaking capacity due to its novel construction. It comprises a fuse element which is securely positioned within an insulating cylindrical tube such as a glass cartridge, and a plurality of sintered ceramic bodies (e.g., cylindrical or polygonal) are circumferentially disposed within the tube so as to define a space therewith to achieve the required fusing and time-lag character- istics. The sintered ceramic bodies are arranged so as to define a plurality of spaces between adjacent pairs of the ceramic bodies and the insulating tube in order to buffer the pressure created by arcing between the ceramic bodies and the insulating tube during a current overload. The fuse of the present invention overcomes the drawbacks of the prior art devices which include, for example, difficulty in stabilizing fuse characteristics.
