Need Help w/ Fuse Panel Rating
 

I'm now getting around to replacing all my breaker switches and noticed the oll breakers were all either 15 or 20 amp.

This seems too high for most of my applications which include: bilge pump, washdown pump, electronics, dash panel lights & compass , 2 - rear deck spot lights, 1 front spot light,and Nav. lights.
Can anyone give me the formula in helping determine what correct rated fuses to use? Dink

Rich,
I don't know of a formula, but all (or most) of your electrical components should have a label on them stating the fuse amperage and type. I assume you're using new components because your boat went down, but if you're re-using existing stuff and it doesn't have a legible label, you might need to contact the manufacturer.

If I could figure out how to do it I would. I'll try again this weekend after I get my fix of Polyester fumes.
