using external fuses on mono amps
Hi guys
I was wondering, if youre usuing a huge mono amp and it calls for external fuses, is there any formula to figure out the correct total size in fuses to use with regards to the power ratings of the amp? I dont have the manual or spec sheet.
I have an external block which can hold like 4 of the small round glass type fuses
like these:

rather than the blade fuses.
Thanks

no, what im saying is, this mono amp comes with NO built-in fuses. you gotta use external fusing. it has 2 - 0/1 guage positive inputs and 2 - 0/1 guage negative inputs on the amp itself.

thx Jordy!
so must i use a blade type fuse OR for example,4x70A glass fuses?
also...
i got 0/1 guage running to the rear. should i split it into 2- 4guages for both the positive and negative dual-inputs or must i run 2 runs of 0/1 guage in both pos./neg. inputs ??

Get yourself an ANL fuse and holder... like this one from Knukonceptz....

If your system takes dual 1 inputs then run 2 runs of 1/0 from the front to back (so 4 total)
Otherwise you're really only doing 1 run to an amp that takes 2 for input.... right?

also, my glass fuse holder can use any size fuses and allows 0/1 in TO 0/1 out, so the 0/1 wont be split any if i dont want it to be
