Big 3 inline fuse rating
i'm doing a semi-big 3 upgrade and running 4 ga wire from my alt + to my battery + and putting in an inline fuse close to the battery. i have a 100A fuse leftover from my audio install...can i use that? or do i need a larger one such as 150A?
thanks

Interesting, I installed 1/0 gauge from alt to battery, all the grounds, battery to fusebox, and obviously running to my amp in the trunk. Did not fuse the alternator, only fuse is on the amp line right on top of the battery and at my distribution block where I go down to 4 gauge to fit the amp terminal. No issues thus far

i would highly recommend getting a fuse on the alt to battery cable as close to the battery as you can. everywhere i read said you should have one. it's not that not having it would give you issues, but prevents a short out in a particular scenario and starting a fire, which we all know is not ideal haha
i would get one on there right away
