Problem is I noticed that the fuse on my 1/0 gauge going towards my battery has half of the plastic melted (but only on the side of the fuse facing the battery). My setup is as follows:
Stockish battery
200A EA Alt
Rockford T20001bd on Kicker 1/0 gauge (100A fuse on wire)
Rockford P400.4 on Rockford 8 gauge (60A fuse on wire)
T20001bd running to Audioque HDC312 at 1ohm
BIG2 done (need to do Alt + to Batt +)
I know my fuse on 1/0 gauge is way too small (the T20001bd has an internal fuse of 250A), but why would one half of my 100A fuse be melted? Doesn't make any sense. Again, its specifically the side of the fuse facing the battery, the other leg of the fuse (facing the amp) is just fine.
