The tablesaw fuse popped. I say popped because its labled "fuse" and
it's a button that you push. Just being clear because it is ambiguous
what I meant.

For purposes of clarity and future use:

The table saw motor does NOT have either an internal fuse or a circuit
breaker, it has a THERMAL OVERLOAD relay.

IOW, if the motor gets t hot, the THERMAL OVERLOAD relay trips.

When the motor cools down, pushing the reset button on the motor will
allow the O/L relay to be reset and the motor to be restarted.

The only circuit breaker involved is in the panel board protecting the
wiring feeding the saw motor.

As described above, the equipment performed as designed to function.
