[QUOTE="fly_marlin, post: 8413004, member: 660781"] This is very wrong, please refrain from this kind of advice. You absolutely use the size fuse rated for the wire you're using. In his case, he should use a 60A inline fuse. That fuse protects the wire. Fuses the amp has on board protect it. If an amp does not have its own fusing, manufacturer provides a fuse rating that should be installed close to the amp. OP, please refer to the chart below: [URL="http://www.the12volt.com/info/recwirsz.asp"]Recommended Power and Ground Cable Sizes & Speaker Wire Size and Length[/URL] [/QUOTE]
