[QUOTE="djdilliodon!, post: 8850694, member: 684299"] As far as grounds go, cars do not operate on AC current and even though AC neutrals will carry half the amperage as the live legs, they are still never fused, the live legs are. Why don’t you need to fuse the neutral/ground? Cause they only carry half the load so if anything is gonna pop it will be on the live legs first. Once it pops that part of the load on the neutral is gone anyway. In a car there is no real reason to fuse a ground just like with AC. You can do it, it will work fine, but it’s honestly a waste of money. [/QUOTE]
