If you're not melting the fuse, and you are melting the HOUSING, one of two things is happening.
1. Your connections are loose where it is melting, and you are getting too much resistance creating too much heat. If you are tightening these down HARD, or it's not happening specifically at a connection, then,
2. Your fuse holder is cheap and can't even handle a 100 amp load. Fuse HOLDERS have an amperage rating too. A half way decent one should be over 100 amps, up to 2,3,400 amps, and should tell you what not to exceed.
You've gone through two already, tell us more about the fuse holder. Got a picture or link to what it is?
