Battery re-wiring ???
I have 2 24 series batteries wired parallel (12v), and have a rats nest of wires running out of my battery boxes. I am considering using a bus bar attached to the frame to lessen the number of wire...

You will need one main fuse between the battery and the buss bar

What for ? Just to add 2 more connections to where you were trying to make less ??
Best practices are to have circuit protection within 18" of the battery but for RV's and IMO, having the fuse or circuit breaker either on the positive terminal or close to it, is the most elegant.
