Fusing • In line fuses placed as close to the positive lead of the power supply must be present to prevent short circuiting • The voltage must be higher than the voltage of your system, and can be as high as you wish • The current rating must be chosen carefully, the standard is 1.25 times the maximum current your system will draw • “Slow blow” fuses are recommended to accommodate quick surges in the circuit, but still provide safety if the high current persists
