What type of fuse adapters are designed to remain permanently once inserted into a fuse holder?

Type F
Type S
Type A
Type B

The correct answer is: Type S

Type S fuse adapters are specifically designed to remain permanently installed in a fuse holder after they have been inserted. This characteristic allows them to provide a secure connection and ensure that fuses are not mistakenly removed or replaced with inappropriate types that could compromise safety. The design typically incorporates features that prevent the installation of incompatible fuses, thereby enhancing protection against overloads and other electrical faults. In contrast, other types of fuse adapters, like Type F, Type A, and Type B, may be intended for temporary use or not possess the design features that secure them permanently within the fuse holder. As a result, these types might allow for easier changes and replacements, but they do not enhance the overall safety and reliability of the electrical system in the same way that Type S does. Understanding the unique characteristics of each type of fuse adapter is crucial for ensuring both code compliance and system safety when preparing for the Master Electrician Exam.
