Re: Fuse block (was Fuses)

["Jim Reeve" <ultra@xxxx>]

So let me get this strait now. In order to keep my fuse block 
intact, (no damage to it now), I should replace the 10A fuse in my #7 
with a 20A, clean out the contacts on the #7 socket thouroughly, and 
periodicly inspect it for melting? What about a VERY small dab of 
Dielectric grease on both pins for the fuse? I would think this 
would help electrical contact and prevent corrosion, but I dont know 
if there would be any ill-effects by using it with a fuse. You guys 
apparently know more about this than I do, any comments?

One more electical project I'm working on this winter is hardwiring 
the cooling fan circuit to go directly from +12, to the 40A breaker, 
then to two relays (one for each fan), and then to thier 
complimentary fan motor. Is the 40A breaker going to be sufficient, 
or should I put some fuses in there for each fan while I'm at it? I 
dont know if I was the source of spark for this big fuse thread, but 
almost every post so far I have found quite interesting. Thanks for 
the help guys!
