A fuse holder (10) comprising an enclosure for removably containing an electrical fuse (42). The fuse holder (10) includes at least a first (50) and a second electrically conducting terminal (52), preferably made of copper or a copper alloy. Each of the first (50) and second electrically conducting terminals (52) is in electrical contact with the fuse (42) through one or more electrically conducting elements (64, 66). The first electrically conductive terminal (50) is rotatably movable relative to the second electrically conductive terminal (52). The enclosure is comprised of a first piece (12) and a second piece (14) that is threadably secured to the first piece (12). When the first (12) and second pieces (14) are secured, they hold the fuse (42) snugly within the enclosure. The second piece (14) may include either a polygonal perimeter or a plurality of notches (68, 70, 72, 74, 76, 78) along the perimeter. In the event that the second piece (14) has a polygonal perimeter, the electrically conducting terminal (50) includes at least a first tab (56) and a second tab (58) abutting against two of the sides of polygonal perimeter. Where the second piece (14) has a perimeter having a plurality of notches (68, 70, 72, 74, 76, 78), the electrically conducting terminal (50a) includes at least one tongue (80) that is insertable into one of the notches (68, 70, 72, 74, 76, 78).
