What Size Alternator Fuse ?

[smac999]

Nysail you already have a current new thread on this topic. there was no need to bring back a 10 year old thread.

put a 200a fuse on the house bank for your alt wire and be done with it. no boat comes with fuses at the battery or alternator. none. only after smart people add them.
