Re: How To Wire Relays For Bright Headlights....

If after, would that allow me not to run a fuse in the power wire?

thanks John, this will help a lot.

I would run the power wire after the 50amp...but still thru another fuse/breaker (30amp fuse and relays). This way the 30 would trip, and not the main 50...which would cause you to loose everything. Just as metioned above...a breaker is preferred (during an intermintant problem, the headlights would flicker off temporarily) This way you could safely pull over, for example.
