Terminate Load Connections - GMT Fuses

Single-Slot Distribution
When using 20 A fuses adjacent fuse positions must be left open. No more than 80A may be
carried through the 10 fuse positions, or 40A per half-section. Up to 14 AWG wire can be
used to connect loads to each of the fuse positions. See Figure 5-21 for fuse position and
terminal block designations.

Double-Slot Distribution
The 16 GMT fuse position terminal blocks will accommodate 10 AWG wire. Each fuse board
(A and B) has 8 GMT positions and is sized to handle up to 80A of total current and can
support up to four 20 amp fuses if spaced properly. If 20A fuses are used, then adjacent fuse
positions must be left empty. See Figure 5-22 for fuse position and terminal block
designations.
