The definition for sectionalizer is wrong. The device that allows one or more faults to occur before interrupting the current is called a "recloser". A good description of a sectionalizer can be found here: [1] http://www.cooperpower.com/Products/Distribution/Sectionalizers/ 86.121.200.253 (talk) 23:48, 17 November 2008 (UTC) [Mircea][reply]

This is also incorrect, "the fuse holder drops out of the upper contact, breaking the circuit." In actuality, the fuse melts, arcs and clears/breaks the circuit. Then the fuse top contact retracts pr releases so that it can "drop-out" or swing out of the holder. This provides the visual indication and predictable separation between live parts and the de-energized faulted line --JTsams talk 13:50, 5 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
