DC Wiring Question - Fuse Placement
I've read that you should put a fuse after the positive bus bar, because it's considered a power source.

...I don't understand this. How is the buss bar a power source?

If you already have a fuse after the positive terminal of the battery, why have another down the line?

Any insight?
