INSTALLATION
You will need to install an in-line fuse or circuit breaker in
the power wire within 18" of the battery. This fuse or circuit
breaker is to protect your vehicle from fire in case the power
wire shorts to the vehicle body. If you are only using one
amplifier, use the fuse rating indicated in this chart. If you are
using more than one amplifier, add up the fuse ratings for all the
amplifiers. This sum is the rating for your main fuse or circuit
breaker. Use a power distribution block or fuse near your amplifiers
with the appropriate fuse for each individual power wire.
