My battery bank will be 4 sets of 4 EVE batteries with 100A JBD BMS on each set. The batteries will be arranged with 2 packs paired in parallel to a class T fuse block and another 2 packs in parallel to a second class T fuse block. After the fuse the two pairs are connected in parallel to a disconnect switch. I had planned on 200A fuses on each block, but I have now realized that the fuse block will only work down to 225A. My wires outside the BMS should be fine at 225A. My question is which is a better/safer failure point, the BMS or the fuse? Should I trust the BMSs to be okay with current between 200A and 225A, or should I be protecting it from that potential of failure with the class T fuse? Basically, should I buy smaller fuse blocks or bigger fuses? Thanks!
