[QUOTE="JasoninDLH, post: 8830108, member: 688106"] Alrighty folks…will someone please check my fusing with my proposed setup as I’m totally frying my brain with this. Here’s my setup: [ATTACH type="full"]47319[/ATTACH] I will have three amps: 300 W, 1000 W, and 200 W. The recommended fuses for each are 30A, 100A, and 20A, respectively. I am also installing a D-Block/Capacitor Combo (the NVX XCap10H). I’m confused about the main in-line fuse and the recommended fuses for the amps. Say, for instance, the 200 W amp wire shorts and I have a 150A fuse at the battery, will that not cause a fire? Do I install three extra fuses after the NVX d-block/cap for each amplifier’s respective fuse rating (as circled in the above schematic)? Based on the following I should not (granted this is in reference to a capacitor separate from the d-block)… [ATTACH type="full"]47320[/ATTACH] I’ve always installed one mono block and a couple subs and this is my first multi amp setup and over thinking this like crazy. 😵💫 [/QUOTE]
