Re: [Amc-list] Fusible Link wire gage size

[Wrambler242@xxxxxxxxxxx]

I've wondered how to relate/translate fuse links to fuses.
I never cared much for fuse links, too much hassle to change out and the sparking that can occur should the end drop and touch a ground just seems a little unneeded to me!
Those big ole fuses we have nowadays seem to me to be a better idea.
