500 amp ANL fuse stud size?

I have seen 5/16 and 3/8 studs on fuse holders.
So do all ANL fuses have the same hole size and if so, what is it?

this one shows 3/8

The Blue Sea ANL's I use, because they are IP rated, are 5/16". Some other brands of ANL's, usually in larger amp sizing, are 3/8" and most others are 5/16". The only ANL's I know of that are ignition protecion rated are the ones offered by Blue Sea.

The Blue Sea “ANL” is likely manufactured by Cooper-Bussmann (IP Rated).

They are made by Cooper Bussmann..

I assumed that I could find better pricing on these fuses by buying them without the Blue Sea name but I was wrong. I pay considerably less money buying them in a Blue Sea package than I do buying them with the Cooper Bussmann name. If anyone knows a source for these, that is less money than Blue Sea, please let me know as I go through LOTS of them.....

If anyone decides they want to search for me, I pay $13.82 for ANL fuses over 200A with an ignition protection rating and $11.25 for ANL's under 200A.... These are Blue Sea labeled fuses...

You might also try this place it's the only place to get Class-T 125-200 amp fuse holders deltecco.com . They also have ANL fuses and holders, as well as various of shunts.

I moved away from shunts myself and now use Hall-Effects Current Sensors from Inpower as well as their LVD, and time delay relays.
