Abstract
An apparatus for triggering chemical augmented electrical fuses includes a light source which emits a light signal in the form of visible or infrared light energy upon receiving a signal from a control system, trigger signal source or other fuses. The light signal is coupled to a light detector by an optical coupling device such as a fiber optic cable. Upon receipt of the light signal, the light detector generates a signal which causes the application of electrical energy to exothermic material in a fuse, thereby detonating the material and causing interruption of current through the triggered fuse.
