hey

i need to get a new ANL fuse and the fuse holder just before the battery and i am confused at which rated fuse i should use, since i have 4 30Amp fuses in my mono amp and 2 30Amp fuses in my 4ch amp which equals 180Amp alltogether and i cant find any 180Amp fuses so which one should i use

If ur amps are already fused then u fuse according to the cable. 150Amp for 4AWG and 300amp for 1/0AWG

so then a 300 amp fuse will be good. you can fuse smaller if you would like, with your application i would say go with a 250 amp ANL fuse
