Overview
The Blue Sea Systems ANL Fuse is a bolt-down fuse range for high-current DC circuit protection on boats, with amperage options from 35A to 750A. It is used with ANL fuse blocks in main battery feeds, inverter circuits, windlass feeds, bow thruster circuits, and other large DC loads where the fuse must be matched to the cable size and equipment draw.
Each fuse has silver-plated connector blades to help maintain a clean electrical contact in marine environments, along with a visible blown-fuse indication that makes troubleshooting faster at the battery bank or DC distribution panel. The range carries a 6,000 Ampere Interrupt Capacity and a maximum voltage rating of 80V DC, giving it the headroom needed for common 12V, 24V, and higher-voltage DC marine systems within the rated limits.
Ratings from 35A through 500A are ignition protected to SAE J1171 for installation aboard gasoline-powered boats when installed as part of a suitable system. The 600A and 750A options are intended for high-current DC applications but are not ignition protected.
Key features
- ANL fuse format for use with Blue Sea Systems ANL fuse blocks in high-current DC circuits.
- Available amperage range covers 35A to 750A, allowing the fuse rating to be matched to the protected circuit.
- 6,000 Ampere Interrupt Capacity supports main DC circuit protection on large battery banks.
- Maximum voltage rating of 80V DC for use within properly specified marine DC systems.
- Silver-plated connector blades help resist corrosion at the contact points.
- Visible blown-fuse indication helps identify an open fuse without unnecessary disassembly.
- 35A to 500A ratings are ignition protected to SAE J1171 for use aboard gasoline-powered boats.
Variants
This ANL fuse range varies by amperage rating. The available options cover 35A, 40A, 50A, 60A, 80A, 100A, 130A, 150A, 175A, 200A, 250A, 300A, 350A, 400A, 500A, 600A, and 750A.
The fuse format, silver-plated connector blades, visible blown-fuse indication, 6,000 Ampere Interrupt Capacity, and 80V DC maximum voltage rating remain consistent across the range. Ignition protection applies to the 35A through 500A ratings only, so the 600A and 750A options should be used only where ignition protection is not required.
Installation and fit
This fuse installs in a compatible ANL fuse block and should be mounted where the protected conductor is as short as practical from the power source, following the vessel’s wiring plan and applicable marine electrical standards. Clean, flat contact surfaces and properly torqued fasteners are important because ANL fuses are used in circuits where poor connections can create heat.
The fuse rating should be selected for the wire size and the equipment being protected, not only for the load nameplate. For motor loads such as windlasses, thrusters, and pumps, starting current and manufacturer recommendations should be checked before selecting the amperage.
Use cases on board
This range is a good match for boat owners, installers, and service yards building or maintaining high-current DC systems. Common placements include battery bank outputs, inverter and charger feeds, DC panel supply circuits, windlass circuits, and other equipment feeds that need a serviceable fuse with clear visual fault indication.
Maintenance and care
During routine electrical checks, inspect the fuse and holder for heat marks, loose fasteners, corrosion, or damage around the contact blades. Replace a blown fuse only after the cause of the fault has been found, and always use the same fuse type and the correct amperage for the protected circuit.

Shipping
We ship worldwide from the United States. Rates are calculated at checkout based on destination and package weight. Some items include free shipping, which will show automatically. Not every product is eligible for international shipping; checkout will confirm eligibility. We do not ship to PO Boxes except through USPS, and not all packages qualify.
Processing and dispatch
Most orders are verified, packed, and handed to the carrier within 1 to 2 business days. Some products may need extra handling time or ship directly from the manufacturer. For certain international orders, inventory transfers between warehouses may add time. If any delay is expected, we will let you know the dispatch date.
Delivery and tracking
Deliveries are handled by trusted carriers such as USPS, UPS, FedEx, and DHL. Estimated arrival times appear at checkout and depend on your location and the service you choose. These are estimates and can be affected by customs or carrier disruptions. A shipping confirmation with a tracking link is emailed when your order ships, and tracking may take up to 24 hours to update. You can also view tracking in your account.
Duties, taxes, and support
International customers are responsible for any customs duties, taxes, and fees charged by the destination country. If these charges are refused and a shipment returns to us, the carrier’s return cost and any re-entry customs fees will be deducted from the refund. If your order is late or you need help, contact cs@qualityboatparts.com and we will assist you.
Quality Boat Parts is a reseller. Many items include a manufacturer’s warranty, and all warranty service is handled directly by the manufacturer. We do not manage or administer warranty claims on behalf of customers.
Warranty terms, coverage, and duration are set by each manufacturer. Issues involving defects, repairs, or replacements must be addressed with the manufacturer’s support team. When available, the warranty period is listed on the product page. If it is not shown, contact us or the manufacturer for details before purchasing.
To start a claim, the customer must contact the manufacturer and follow their process. Keep your proof of purchase and original packaging, and register the product if the manufacturer requires it, as these are often needed for warranty service.
