Cooper-Bussman panel mount ATC fuse blocks:
The BUSSMAN part number for the terminal removal tool is HT15710-01. See attached Bussman document.
I purchased mine from Waytek
http://order.waytekwire.com/
Also see:

Also attached is a drawing for making your own tool.

From Eaton's support team, Oct 2026:
"... The best removal tool for our 15700-RTA Fuse Panel is two small flat blade screwdrivers. See attached.
I have attached a drawing of the HT15010-01 tool, it has been flagged obsolete in our system. Not sure it was ever purchased or very rarely if so.
I just use my old Delphi pick tools from back in the days of my harness building. Just don’t forget to gently bend the terminal locks back out if reusing the terminal in another cavity..."
