Revisiting fuses. I currently have 2A mini blade automotive (ie 12-24V) fuse and holder on the 58V accessory circuit. There's not much going through it. After the buck convertors the total draw is about 20W or so. Slightly more accounting for convertor losses.
Fuse is there for the dead short scenario, intent is a bit more than the draw, but nowhere near the wire rating.
But, fuses are a bit of a mystery. Are Amps just Amps (in context) and have I got it close to right? Is there a right way to size commonly available fuses for 60V? I am not finding what I need on the www probably because I am not asking the right questions so will someone with some technical knowledge help demystify fuses?
