Fusable Links and One Wire Alt. Question - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

whateva · 10-13-2002, 04:36 PM

I am installing a one wire alt. and was wonder what type of protection do I need. I bought a fusable link, but it says use a fusable link 2 size smaller than the wire gauge being use. This seem like it would defeat the purpose of have the 10 gauge wire if you use a 14 gauge fusable link

Also, should I put the fusable link between the alt and the battery, or the power line coming out of the battery. Any help would be great. Thanks
