Correct fuse size for layout wire size
Posted by KRM on Wednesday, January 9, 2013 2:39 PM

Is there a list of what fuse size is need to protect different wire sizes from 22 gauge to say 14 gauge.

 I am in the process of install fuses on my smaller accessory and switch wiring and want to use the correct size fuse. I will be using ATM mini fuses.
