Do I need a fusable link to proect the loom? My premier loom did not come with one.

Any recommendations/advice welcome, and where can I get one?

Keith.

you need a fusebox, if this is what you mean?

Hi,

I got mine from here

premier wiring strangely enough.

most production looms of days gone by didn't have one though. nor does my loom made from a sierra one.

fusib le link

Each circuit should be fused seperately in the fusebox so you don't really need a big biffy fuse near the battery terminal. The only thing that would protect is the bit upstream of the fusebox in a situation where the fuse box arcs....

I've got one of these in the main supply wire



It came from VWP. I think I've got something like a 40A strip fuse in there.

It's very much an 'if all else fails' jobbie.

I've got the same as Mr Jenkins.

Mounted as close to battery as possible.

I suppose it protects against a short to chassis of the feed from the battery to the fusebox but is also in the feed from the battery to the alternator so would protect if the alternator went short which is not inconceivable.

I put in a 10A fuse while I was checking out the wiring - worth it cos I blew it twice
