[C320-list] Fusible link

[Jeff Hare]

On our #809 we had 30a fuses that we changed to 40a when we installed the 40amp charger.  

I think 40a is still a good safety size even for the ProMariner 30amp and Xantrex 20amp chargers. 

These fuses are only to protect the battery charger cables from damage if there is a short.   

Remember to remove these fuses when working on/changing your charger unless you like indoor fireworks.  ;)

The inline fuse on Milagro's house batteries was 40 amp.

Does anyone know what the amphere rating is for the fusible link in the battery cables?
