British Boobytrap Mechanisms in Wehrmacht

[bergler]

Hi, those 3 british Sabotage fuses (I don´t think it is really Sabotage fuses, but i read it once) were found amongst other german pioneer items recently. Definately used by the Germans, and why not. They are to be found here, on the very good lexpev Website:

I have not really seen them before. Are they common fuses, or of the rarer Kind?

Thanks!

Nobody knows These, or no interest??

If by sabotage you mean booby traps, then yes, that is exactly what they were used for. I'm not familiar with the German use of these switches but as far as I'm concerned none of them are very common today.
