Marine Deep Cycle Charger Fuse Replacment

Deep Cycle Marine Charger keeps blowing fuses

New fuse holder soldered for quick replacement
Charger with fuse shorting repaired!! 

Diagnosis:

  • Old batteries have spikes in the current flowing through thus blowing the fuse.
Prognosis:

The old 240v 5a quickblow fuse is not going to cut it.  Its too sensitive and the clients not replacing the batteries for a bit longer.  We can make some adjustments that will satisfy the customer.  Adding a quick change screw in fuse holder and uping the amperage to 8a vs 5a on the quickblow ceramic fuse should alleviate the customers issue.
