brsteinbach Posted August 2, 2009 Report Posted August 2, 2009 Ok I was wondering if it would be ok to temporally use a 200 amp fuse for 4 gauge and then upgrade to 1/0 and a 300 amp fuse. So is it ok to use a 200 amp fuse on 4 gauge lol.

1992Chevy K1500 Posted August 2, 2009 Report Posted August 2, 2009 I personally wouldn't feel safe with anything over a 125.

1992Chevy K1500 Posted August 2, 2009 Report Posted August 2, 2009 It'd probably be better to wait and get it (the 1/0) when you have the money. However, if you do use 4 gauge, then get no bigger than a 125 amp fuse.

Thanks guy's That's not safe because you exceed the wire limit fuse. YOu might start a fire hazard. 100 amp fuse would be perfect fine. You said it too expensive for you honda. I don't think so.

Thanks guy's No, not a good idea. The whole point of fusing the main power lead is so that the fuse pops in the event on a catastrophic failure (short) and will stop the current before the wire gets to the point of catching fire.
