Heyo, solar friends! I am doing a modified "The Minimalist" system from Will's website and I have a question on fuse sizing and wire gauge. I have attached a photo of what I'm planning for the system. I wanted to connect the battery directly to the charge controller because the battery has no BMS and I can set the low voltage disconnect with the charge controller. Since I'm not doing the system exactly like Will, I have some questions about fuse sizing and wire size. I am using the Victron 100/20 charge controller which has a max wire size of 10 AWG, but the Blue Sea Systems fuse box doesn't specify wire size.
2 questions:
1.What size fuse would I need to connect the charge controller to the battery?
2. What size wire and fuse would I need to connect the fuse block to the battery?
I have the questions written on the diagram below. If anyone can help, I would super appreciate it!! Much love, y'all.
