When it's just a regular wire. You just fuse to the wires amp rating. 1/0 is rated for 300/350. When you wire from a block to your amps, that's when you wire to what your amplifier is capable of.

no. which one i get?

you fuse the amp to battery positive run with a fuse close to the amp rating of your alt.

Its only optional if your wire(s) clearly overestimate the max amperage of the alt. most people still fuse anyways though.
