[traksta15 10+ year member]

ok i have a hifonics 1500D and a profile 200sx for my comps, so my question is, is this the right equipment i should use??

ok i have about 20ft. of 2 ga im ordering so thats the wire i'll be using......

coming off the battery to this fuse holder.....

http://www.cardomain.com/item/LITBANL2

going to this distroblock (nonfused, should it be fused?what size fuse should i use)

http://www.ikesound.com/product-product_id/527

then splitting off to a 4ga for the 1500d and 8ga for the 200sx.......

1. would i have any problems as far as blowing fuses, amps shutting down or anything???

2. is the 200amp fuse in the fuse holder by the battery too big?

3. too small??

thanks in advance, and all help is appreciated!!!!

that sounds right, the fuse size of 200a is good, dont go over 240a imo, in weldingsupply.com they have a chart on how many amps per wire to use

u will need to fuse the wires coming of the distro btw, refer to that chart in weldingsupply.com for some help, its under the wires section, comes in hady

looks correct...and yeah you should fuse those wires coming from the dist. box...better safe than sorry

the chart that i found only goes down to 50ft, am i looking at the right chart???what size fuse should i use for the 4ga and 8ga coming off the distro?so you're saying i should buy a fused distro block??any suggestions on fuse sizes for the distro block??

what about this distroblock?

that holder will hold up to 80A fuses. Use an 80A for the 4awg and a 60A for the 8awg
