Bob, On the instruction manual that came with the pump it will tell you what size fuse or breaker it requires. If it is 15 AMP, look at the panel Breaker and it will state the size of the breaker on the front or side of the panel breaker. If it is 25A, it is too big. You can either replace it with a 15A breaker (If it is only protecting the pump) or you can put an in line fuse BEFORE the panel breaker. Capt. Perry

You are talking to a electronic moron. (Everybody is ignorant right?, Just on different subjects) So here is what I know. The dc panel breaker appears to be 25 amps and the in-line pump fuse is 15amps. Should I put another 15 amp traditional fuse in line to replace the one I have? Thanks for your patience.
