Your Sun Electrolite battery is protected by two fuses in the front of its casing, as facing forward:

One 20A/250V 314-series fast-acting ceramic fuse located on the left side front of battery
One 5A/250V 314-series fast-acting ceramic fuse located on the right side front of battery

These two fuses protect both the battery and the controller. In the event of an overload these fuses will
remove ALL BATTERY POWER by disconnecting the overloaded circuit. The overloaded fuses must be
replaced if this happens. Do not, under any circumstances, bypass these fuses. Do not replace these
fuses with anything other than the exact size and specification of fuse. Use of non-specification fuses
may result in battery damage, controller damage, or risk of fire.
