RickyFriery97 Posted November 24, 2011 Report Share Posted November 24, 2011 i dont fuse mine, but it can be dependant on the wire, and the size of the alt. 1/0 OFC is good up to around 300 amps, you can fuse it at that, or the alt amperage. 2014 Chevy Silverado Crewcab 1994 Chevy Full Size blazer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miguels Posted November 24, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2011 i know some people dont fuse the charging wire but its best, if you happen to have a short you wouldn't want to mess up a $500+ alternator. 300 amp sounds good thanks Ricky my logshttp://www.stevemead...-my-new-set-up/my blow through loghttp://www.stevemead...future-updates/ 96 ss http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/164094-96-impala-ss-build/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nine8SST Posted November 24, 2011 Report Share Posted November 24, 2011 Alt to batt? You don't need a fuse. Yes you do. Use a fuse that matches your alt. 100amp alt uses a 100amp fuse....etc. 1998 SS/T Ram Build Log - Kenwood KVT-514 and KNA-G510 Navigation - 2 DC Level 3 12" - Components??? - Sundown ??? - Sundown??? - Knu Konceptz - Second Skin Dampy Pro - XS D6500 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Use a fuse that matches your alt. 100amp alt uses a 100amp fuse....etc. Its recommended, but not needed. I don't have mine fused, used a stock 115A, stock 160A, and a 300A H/O alt. Never any problems with 1/0 OFC 2014 Chevy Silverado Crewcab 1994 Chevy Full Size blazer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
