[QUOTE="audioholic, post: 3644850, member: 549629"] Refer to a 12v wire sizing chart to properly size your wire. The chart will recommend a wire size based on the length of the run, the amount of power you'll run through the wire (obviously) and based on a maximum allowable voltage drop. This chart will tell you the apropriate sized wire to use given your situation. Then you look at a fuse sizing chart to determine the proper fuse size for the wire you just chose. Fuse size is dependant on wire diameter exclusively, not length. [/QUOTE]
