Fuse size?
I need to put a fuse in the positive line between battery and solar controller. I currently have 100 watts but may go to 200. Will a 30 amp fuse be enough?
Thanks.............DJ

12AWG, 20 amp is good.
I a house thats true
But by the charge controller amp if its matched to the panel , a 100 watt panel amp out put max is 5-6 amps , if your charge controller is 15 amp and you might add another panel you could use a 15 amp, 30 amp might not protect if there a problem
