Description

The fuze operates on the same principle as the Metallic Electromagnetic Fuze 1954(1) except that it has only one electric circuit instead of two. The fuze body consists of 2 pieces which, when screwed together, house the current generator assembly.

The fuze is used with the metallic AT shaped charge mine, Model 56 (Mi AC M OC 56). The fuze may also be used to initiate the electrical detonator of any electrical igniting mechanism (provided the electrical resistance of the wire used is not too high). Tripwire attached to end of tilt wire may also be used for boobytrapping.
