This is from the smaller element within the fuse compared to the wire it is connected to. To combat this you can run many smaller fuses together. So say you have 150A fuse, three 50A fuses cold be stacked and would reduce your voltage loss since it would increase surface area of the fuse itself. Thats why you see the MECA guys running many 5 or 10A fuses, to get every last tenth of a volt through the fuses.For everyday vehicles, its probably best to fuse the added wiring. As said, its $20 and could be the difference in your car being wrecked and on fire or just wrecked....</blockquote>
