After reading many posts regarding running clean power to electronics, I’ve decided to run 8 gauge from my battery to a Blue Sea fuse block at the console and then 10 gauge from there to the bow to power graphs up there.
What I’ve read is many of you add a circuit breaker (at the battery) between the battery and the fuse block. However, others with this same setup just run a perko style on/off switch that doesn’t appear to have a breaker.
id like to add the breaker for protection as many have suggested, however, nobody has stated what size. I’m going to be running 3 HDS Live 12”s, Active Target, Sonic Hub and NMEA2k off this run.
This is the breaker I was leaning toward as it serves as a switch as well. But what size?

Also what gauge wire to run from the breaker to the positive on the battery.
Thanks in advance.
