Inverter main fuse - Arcticdude - 11-07-2014 01:24 I recently popped an inverter fuse. Turns out mine are a Shawmut Ampsurge A13X250 250a fuse. This crosses to a Bussmann 4XC83 from Grainger. $68 plus tax each. I haven't yet mounted the new one, but it appears to be very close in all dimensions and should be an easy replacement. RE: Inverter main fuse - davidbrady - 11-07-2014 01:35 John, What loads are you running that require over 3000W of power? RE: Inverter main fuse - rrueckwald - 11-07-2014 11:01 [attachment=1462][attachment=1461]If you are replacing a fuse, and even if you are not, add the proper fuse holder. BB used a piece of rubber and a metal clamp that is a dead short to the battery if it comes just a little loose. Pix attached. Again, while you are at it, install a rubber cover over the back of thee hot jump terminal. It is inviting a massive spark if you happen to ground it with a wrench.

I'll have to study mine a little to see how to do that properly. |
