Fuse and Wire question for Sol-Ark15k + 6 Eg4ll + 16KwPV?

[evotech]

I am getting close to wiring my Sol-Ark 15K to 6 Eg4 LL batteries. Total PV is 16Kw. I was thinking 2 sets of #2 wire from batteries to Sol-Ark, Any reason to go bigger? Should I fuse these before the Sol-Ark? I like the idea of minimizing the equipment but I am not sure if I should be adding fuses. Any advice is appreciated.

How long is the wire run between the sol-ark and the batteries?

Should I fuse these before the Sol-Ark?

Yes, I prefer the fuses as close to the source of the energy that could get unleased by a short circuit. I put my fuse on the negative bus bar of the battery.
