What size fuse

[tarnold]

Going to add a 1000 watt pure sine wave inverter. Want to install a ANL fuse between inverter and battery. What size fuse should I use? Will be nothing more than Cpap machine or tv.

If you are going smaller on the wire the fuse would need to be reduced.

Neither #4 (85A) or #2(115A) will safely carry 125 amps.
What does the mfg. recommend?
