Ooh master switch!! I forgot that, but I'll get one on and 10 amp fuses for switches, and a 15 amp for the positive line. You guys have me all squared away. Thank you for enlightening with baby words :) That's what I needed. Hard to believe I fly a jet but can't wire in a 12 dollar box..hahahaha. I was misunderstanding how it worked causing darkness in the mind. Jazz On Feb 20, 2016 5:37 PM, "David Rifkind" <drifkind@acm.org> wrote:

So, talk to me about fuses on the switches versus the one on the positive wire…
The reason you’d put a fuse before the meter is that the meter itself could fail. If it turns into a crowbar (this is a technical term) it’s shorting right across the battery. A fuse holder there is also a handy battery disconnect if you didn’t put in a master switch.
