Zusammenfassung:A method of fabricating a fuse includes providing a fuse element within a casing. The fuse element has a plurality of ligaments configured to direct a current therethrough. A mechanical tension is then applied to the fuse element and a filler material is added to the casing so as to support the fuse element. The filler material is then solidified. Next, the mechanical tension is removed with the fuse element retaining a residual tensile stress after removal of the mechanical tension.
