I picked up 2 led light bars, one for forward and one for reverse. I am also converting my 3PH snow blower over to electric for the chute deflector and rotation. I am also installing a electric 3rd function valve for a future grapple. I had the space in my existing fuse block but there wasn't any connections in the spots where the fuse would go, so I picked up a 6 gang fuse block that I will install for the added equipment. There will be three electric circuits at the back of the tractor with each controlled by their own switch and fuse, each light bar will have its own switch and fuse and the 3rd function will have its own switch and fuse. I will run power from the battery to the fuse block with a fuse as close to the battery as possible. From the fuse block I will supply each circuit. For the power supply to the back of the tractor I will be using a 6 way trailer plug to keep things neat and tidy.
To determine the wire size and fuse size from the battery to the fuse block do I add up the operating amps of each electrical component and go with wire rated for the combined amps of the equipment
