OK I'm going to expose my ignorance yet one more time. I'm still 

planning my electrical/panel installation and I recall seeing pictures 

of some device that I believe was a part of the electrical system that 

was encased in plastic and mounted on the firewall/sub-panel (sorry 

that's as descriptive as I can recall) I can't recall what the device's 

function was or what it was called, but somewhere in the crevesases of 

my mind,  I filled a 'I need one of those' and now that I'm into the 

planning/ordering, I have this uneasy feling that I'm missing something.

Can someone help me out?

ANL current-limiting device (a.k.a. big-a** fuse).  These look like

"blades" and can be held in an open holder, or a plastic enclosed

holder.  Car stereo outfits sell all kinds of cool plastic enclosures,

or B&C sells the basic open holder.  Under the cowl, I'd go with the

enclosed holder. (or you could build an aluminum enclosure if you were

so inclined.)

Great!



Where are they used? What determined whether or not they are needed?



THANKS

Deems,



Not sure if this is what you're referring to, but if it's

the thing on this page:



http://www.myrv10.com/N104CD/panel/20060115/index.html



..then that's my ANL fuse.



Is that it?

I think Michael Sausen just mentioned them today.

You sure this was an ANL fuse an not an Essential Bus Diode?  This is used to prevent the drain of an Essential Bus Battery by non-essential bus devices in the event of a main alternator or battery failure.     >Where are they used?
