    I'm supposed to have a 125A fuse on my wiring, but I can not find a 125A ANL fuse. Are they even made? I see 100,150, but not 125 :unsure:

    What is telling you that you are supposed to have a 125A fuse? What gauge wire are you using and how long is it? What is the current draw from your amp(s)?

    Yeah they do make the 125A fuses, I have one myself.

    You seem to be the only one... Look at my post number and cut me some slack :p
    My current draw will be somewhere between 900-1000, i chose 1000 to be on the conservative side.

    well there are a few problems with that Page

    the only thing you need to worry about is the Lenght of wire and the Gauge of that wire

    then we can tell you the maxium amperage draw for that situtation and that is what you need to fuse it at....


    That little scripts he has on that site assumes factors as constant that they should not..

    I personally wouldn't trust a 150A fuse on 4 gauge wire. 100 would probably work alright, but I wouldn't want to make you buy some fuses just to blow em :p

    I have a brand new 125A ANL fuse I can send you if you want to send me a personal message with your address.

    Yeah, I think a 150 amp fuse would be too high for 4 awg wire. 100 or 125 would be OK for his setup.

    If you cant find a 125 look for a 120.
