A couple of thoughts:
1. a good idea is to use fuses directly connected to the battery post (or very
close to). This way, anything you connect “directly” to the battery, is in fact
already protected by a fuse. An example is here:
http://www.amazon.ca/Blue-Sea-Systems-5191-Terminal/dp/B0019ZBTV4. They also
come in two-fuse format, which I like even more. All dependent on the space
around your battery.
2. Think hard why you would not switch to a Smart Plug. If you need more info,
look here: http://www.pbase.com/mainecruising/installing_a_smart_plug. Btw.
that forum (Compass Marine or Main Sail) has a huge amount of articles, many of
which would be quite useful in your particular case (e.g.:
http://www.pbase.com/mainecruising/battery_fusing).
just my $0.02 (lately worth only $0.018)
