bassl0va Posted August 27, 2010 Report Posted August 27, 2010 looks fine. Probably don't 8awg for the sub terminals with this setup though, but nothing wrong with overkill.

I wouldn't really know, I haven't used a circuit breaker. I'm sure it would work, it would be way cheaper for a fuse and a fuse holder though.
