Add a circuit Question?

[Mr.FT]

Does anyone know if anyone makes an "add a fuse" for our glass tube fuses? I've used these on my modern cars with good results. Thanks in advance.

You can get copper rings that slip over one end of the glass fuse to let you tap in a wire to a new device. But to get another fuse, you would need an in-line one on the new wire. A more elegant way to tap power is to drop down the fuse box and slide a piggyback spade on an existing fuse-holder, as the factory did.

^^^Yep, mine car has an empty spade on the back of the fuse box on the acc terminal.

 

[Mr.FT]

Thanks for the input, I'm going to try the piggy back spade as my first choice. If I need to where can I buy the copper rings Just in case I run into sny issues?
Thanks

I just got a pack of 5 at the NAPA store. Had to have them shipped in as they didnt have them in their stock.

One more thing, Make sure to install them on the correct side of the fuse. No protection if you put them on the hot side of the fuse box.
