Re: Battery Fusing


 

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý

Good idea.? Should have thought of that.? The controller has a 500A fuse.? So if I match that at the battery I will protect the wiring and have enough capacity to match what the controller should max out at.?

I have found these options so far (thanks for suggestions...)

Here's all the Blue Seas options


EV West


Battle Born (a little weak on listing specs)


Fasttronix


Selections from Amazon - Not necessarily marine rated...



Still looking for more...

The SEVCON GEN4 controller can limit the battery current and in any case limits the motor current.

You can take a look at the fuse integrated in the controller:
- 48V size 2 - 275A max motor - 250A fuse (x 48V = 12 kW)
- 48V size 4 - 450A max motor - Fuse 425A (x 48V = 20 kW)
- 48V size 6 - 650A max motor - 750A fuse (x 48V = 36 kW)
?
An additional fuse on the battery bank protects against short circuits in the wiring.
