AMG (also known as Mega) fuses are high-current fuses designed to protect heavy-duty electrical systems from overloads and short circuits. They’re commonly used in 12V and 24V DC applications such as dual battery systems, inverters, DC-DC chargers, and other high-amperage accessories found in 4WDs, caravans, camper trailers, and boats.

AMG and Mega fuses are the same type of fuse and the terms are often used interchangeably. Both feature bolt-down terminals, high current ratings (typically 40A–500A), and a compact design for easy installation in fuse blocks or holders. The naming difference usually depends on the manufacturer rather than a technical variation.

Select a fuse rated slightly higher than your circuit’s maximum continuous current draw, but below the current rating of your wiring and connected components. For example, if your inverter draws 120A, you’d typically use a 150A fuse. Always ensure your cable size and fuse rating match to prevent overheating or nuisance tripping.

Yes, AMG/Mega fuses can be used in marine and outdoor setups, but it’s essential to install them in a weatherproof fuse holder or sealed fuse block to protect against moisture, salt, and dust. Many 4WD and marine systems use AMG/Mega fuses because they provide reliable, high-current protection in harsh conditions when properly enclosed.

Before replacing an AMG/Mega fuse, always disconnect the power source (battery or power supply) to prevent arcing or injury. Use a wrench to loosen the mounting bolts, remove the old fuse, and install the new one with secure, clean connections. Double-check that the replacement fuse matches the correct amperage rating and is properly seated in its holder.
