Claim:
1. A system, comprising: one or more fuses arranged to be supplied by power from one or more power sources; one or more load-break switches arranged to alternately electrically connect and disconnect a power output side of the one or more fuses; one or more non-load-break switches arranged to alternately electrically connect and disconnect a power input side of the one or more fuses; one or more first actuators operably connected to a respective one of the one or more load-break switches; one or more second actuators operably connected to a respective one of the one or more non-load-break switches; and a securable fuse cover arranged to physically separate at least one fuse of the one or more fuses from the one or more first actuators, wherein the fuse cover is securable by the one or more second actuators; wherein the fuse cover, one or more first actuators, and one or more second actuators are configured to release the fuse cover and enable access to the at least one fuse by sequential operation of the one or more first actuators to open the one or more load-break switches followed by operation of the one or more second actuators to open the one or more non-load-break switches and electrically isolate the at least one fuse.
