[Healeys] auxiliary fuse bloc

[John Trifari]

I suppose such a calculation would be nice if in fact every one of the items
in the fuse box are carrying current at the same time.  Generally such a
calculation is not needed since such is not the case.  However, those who
wish to calculate the resistance of a parallel circuit should use the
following:  1/Rtotal = 1/R1+ 1/R2+ 1/R3 + etc.   John Trifari.   Golden Gate

Would really need to know, first, the total amperage of all the items you  
want to install 
on a particular circuit.
But...12awg should be big enough for anything you could possibly want to  
install in a Healey.
