And I think it was mentioned before but the point of the fuse or breaker is to protect the wire, not the unit. So figure out what the current draw is, size the wire accordingly, and then size the breaker or fuse to keep the wire from frying. The point of this being to keep the smoke inside the wire, of course, rather than in the cockpit at un inconvenient time. There's a wire sizing chart at http://home.hiwaay.net/~langford/wiresize.html, which includes a "max fuse size" rating. This also takes into account different lengths of wire. Don't forget that composite planes usually require that number to be doubled to account for the return wire to ground....
