Fuse sizes

Post by hembo666 »

What rating of fuse should be used on the 12v fridge circuit and split charge circuit?

mine has melted the fuse holder without blowing the fuse so when i rewire it i want to make sure i do it right.

depends on what size the fridge is, iirc they run at about 7 amps so a 10A fuse should do it!

cheers Dave, what about the split charge circuit for the leisure battery, not checked which circuit has melted yet.
