Biggest I've seen in AGU is 150A..... someone is probably crazy enough to sell a 200A though.

They dont make them bigger then 80 amps as far as i know anythign bigger is mini ANL or ANL or you can get a circuit breaker.

Is this fused at the battery or amp? On my brothers US Amp there's more than one + terminal and you can run one than one power wire to it from the fused distro and use agu fuses. I'm guessing this would be fine to do with other amps aswell.

so if the biggest is under 100, what kind of fuse and inline fuse holder would i use? does anyone got a pic or link?

thx for the links.

does anyone have a wire chart? or is 250 amp fuse the norm for 0/1 guage wire at the battery??

also, JL says when splitting the wire, 50 amps should be used PER amp . you think 80amps are okay? i havent seen many 50amp ANL fuses around. i have a ANL distro block.

250 will be fine for 1/0

80 will be fine

80 will be fine

so that 30 EXTRA amps isnt a big deal? i mean, it would take more strain for it to blow, correct?? thats what im worried about

your fusing the power wire to protect it from burning the car to the ground the amps should have fuses to protect themselves.

so i leave the distro block empty with no fuses? is that even possible?

i will be fusing the 0/1 guage at the battery, but with 2 amps i gotta split the 0/1 in the trunk in my distro. so i assumed i need 2 more fuses to go in the block of 50amps, coz thats what JL says????
