A 100 A fuze is pretty stout. There was a recent bit on the Velocity
forum to the effect that a 60 amp alternator needs an 80 amp fuze at a
minimum. If your alternator is over 75 A, you might want to go to a 120 A
fuze.
Hmmm.
There was discussion on the aero-electric list recently which said the
opposite. i.e. a 60A fuse is good for a 75A alternator. I tend to go with
Nuckolls when there's conflicting info in electrical stuff. Rusty, it might be a
good idea to get his opinion before installing a nail for a fuse. I'll be
interested to read his thoughts on this.
