I am not an electronics person so looking for some assistance.
I am running two pumps that are rated for a 25 amp fuse each.
I have one main power line that brings the power to the pumps from the battery. I then split this power line into two and connect it to each of the pumps.
I was told by a shop keeper to put a 50 amp fuse on the main electrical line as two pumps are running via this line.
---------------------------
However I was unsure if this is correct. The reason being I may be running one pump at a time or I may be running two pumps. When I am running one pump then the 50 amp fuse will be higher then the single pump 25 amp rating.
So could i or should i put a 25 amp fuse on the power line after i split it into two to connect to the two pumps.
