Re: Fuse Block
Yeah. I have electrical exp. and I know how I want to do everything. I want to use relays to keep from trashing swtiches on the heavier circuits. But I dont know where Im going to put everything on this cart. Would like to keep it close to the batts but there is just hardly no room.

Re: Fuse Block
I managed to fit this next to my batteries on the opposite side as my controller. I've heard of some folks mounting their charger there, so there's plenty of room. The box has a hinged lid that seals pretty tightly, so no dust of water gets in.

Re: Fuse Block
do you really need a fuse box?
i use this junction box with a inline fuse for my lights and 12V distribution. link right now, im only fused at the battery. i suppose i should fuse everything separately, but since ground is lifted from the cart chassis i haven't really been too concerned about a dead short. anywho, there is enough room inside or out for more in-line fuses! -sj |

Re: Fuse Block
Sonic... I just zoomed in on your pics and noticed that you have relays in it. At first I was just thinking you hade a junction box. Most relays I have delt with are rated for 30amp. Im sure they go over that a little before they crash and burn but a dead short will go over that before it burns your wiring too bad. So in a way yours are fuse protected.

Re: Fuse Block
I have only four fuses in my cart, one of which came with the light harness for the H/L's.
The other three, 15A each are used for accessories; one is dedicated the the AUX 12 V Power Outlet on the dash and one is used for the under seat locking solenoids, and the other is used for everything else..... Everything else is: RADIO, which BTW has its own inline fuse (2 amps max), SOC Meters (two each 120ma total) a couple of LED's and a few relays (150ma each times 5 is 3/4 amp). I guess I could throw in an "A-ooga" horn and compressor (another couple amps) but really, how many fuses are necessary in a Golf Cart? We don't have all the accessories that are used in an automobile such as WWipers, RW Defroster, Blowers, Pwr Seats, Pwr Antenna, Pwr Windows, Locks, etc..... Lastly, I can't recall the last time I had to replace a fuse in any of my cars, for any reason so IMO it's such a rarity and so IMO the placement of the fuses are a non-issue to me.....mine are closest to the Aux Battery under the seat (opposite the controller)....
