Currently I have a 250 amp EA alternator, the big 3 with 1/0 wiring and an optima red top under the hood. I was going to run two 1/0 cables to three optima blue tops. I have a birth sheet for my amp that says 4775 watts rms at 1 ohm(T4K) and the fuse in my amplifier is 500 amps. I was going to run two inline fuses for each power cable (4 inline fuses in all). What size should I use and do I need a fuse on the power wire after the third battery before the amp and if I do what size would I need because the amp already has a 500 amp fuse. Also, I was wondering if I would need more than three blue tops(I am getting blue tops because of warranties and deals I know Kinetik and powermaster are better). If somebody could answer all of my questions I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks

I just found a link that helps describe info about fuses and circuit breakers.

This is really just a gloss over about how they work and if I find better descriptions I will post the links.

It can help if you understand fuses.
