The invention claimed is: 1. A brake cartridge for use in safety systems for power tools, the cartridge comprising: a housing; a brake pawl associated with the housing and adapted to pivot relative to the housing; a spring at least partially endosed in the housing and adapted to pivot the brake pawl relative to the housing when the spring expands; a fuse wire adapted to hold the spring in compression: circuitry enclosed in the housing and adapted to fuse the fuse wire to release the spring; a plug associated with the housing and adapted to engage a corresponding plug in the power tool; an aperture in the housing configured to receive a key; and a switch enclosed in the housing and adapted to be activated by the key when the cartridge is installed in the power tool, where activation of the switch by the key indicates the cartridge is installed in a power tool. 2. The brake cartridge of claim 1, where the switch is mounted on a printed circuit board. 3. The brake cartridge of claim 2, where the switch is a tactile switch. 4. The brake cartridge of claim 1, further comprising a rotatable bushing held by the housing and defining at least part of the aperture, where rotation of the key in the aperture causes the bushing to rotate. 5. The brake cartridge of claim 4, where the bushing includes a stop to limit rotation. 6. The brake cartridge of claim 1, where the aperture includes a slot adapted to orient the key relative to the aperture. 7. The brake cartridge of claim 4, where the aperture and bushing are configured so that the key cannot rotate the bushing unless the key is inserted a predetermined distance into the aperture. 8. The brake cartridge of claim 4, where the bushing and housing are configured to inhibit the entry of dust into the housing. 9. A brake cartridge for use in safety systems for power tools, the cartridge compnsing: a housing; a brake pawl associated with the housing and adapted to pivot relative to the housing; a spring at least partially enclosed in the housing and adapted to pivot the brake pawl relative to the housing when the spring expands; a fuse wire adapted to hold the spring in compression; circuitry enclosed in the housing and adapted to fuse the fuse wire to release the spring; a plug associated with the housing and adapted to engage a corresponding plug in the power tool; an aperture in the housing configured to receive a key; a switch associated with the housing and adapted to be activated by the key when the cartridge is installed in the power tool, where activation of the switch by the key Indicates the cartridge, is installed in a power tool; a rotatable bushing held by the housing and defining at least part of the aperture, where rotation of the key in the a aperture causes the bushin to rotate; and an actuator adjacent the switch and adapted to move when the bushing rotates, where a movement of the actuator activates the switch. 10. The brake cartridge of claim 9, where the housing includes guide posts to guide the movement of the actuator. 11. The brake cartridge of claim 10, where the actuator includes apertures configured to fit around the guide posts. 12. The brake cartridge of claim 11, where the apertures are configured to limit movement of the aperture in at least one direction. 13. The brake cartridge of claim 9, where the actuator includes a flexible tab adapted to contact the switch. 14. The brake cartridge of claim 9, where the actuator includes at least one cam surface and where the bushing includes a flange adapted to contact the cam surface. 15. A brake cartridge for use in safety systems for power tools, the cartridge comprising: a housing; a brake pawl associated with the housing and adapted to pivot relative to the housing; a spring at least partially enclosed in the housing and adapted to pivot the brake pawl relative to the housing when the spring expands; a fuse wire adapted to hold the spring in compression; circuitry enclosed in the housing and adapted to fuse the fuse wire to release the spring; a plug associated with the housing and adapted to engage a corresponding plug in the power tool; a key; an aperture in the housing configured to receive the key; and a switch enclosed in the housing and adapted to be activated by the key when the cartridge is installed in the power tool, where activation of the switch by the key indicates the cartridge is installed in a power tool. 16. The brake cartridge of claim 15, where the key is configured to fit into the aperture in only one orientation.
