[QUOTE="coyote_5, post: 5120065, member: 572680"] Regarding the fusing at the d-block, why the different fuse sizes? Aren't we just fusing for the wire? The amps have their own fuses for protection. I'm trying to figure out my setup and I'm running 4awg from the bat to the block (Stinger MIDI fused block) and then 4awg to two amps - 100.2 and 500.1 (106~ current draw). Each amp has 60amps of fusing. I was planning on using 100a or 125a across the board (at battery and at dblock). This way I don't have to mess with multiple wire gauge and fuse rating. Is this a big no no? I don't understand why it would be, but then again I'm pretty much a noob. I was leaning towards 100a fuses because they are easier to find and cheaper for MIDI fuses. [/QUOTE]
