I had a light circuit fail on a set of house lights and checked the fuse. A portion of the fuse block was melted and I can't even remove the fuse. The block is made by Apex which I can no longer find. I've had trouble with these blocks before. They are six ganged fuses feed by a #6 awg wire back to my 12v buss bar. I found a replacement.

This is very similar and will work with a bit of modification. All my 12v branch circuits are push on spade terminals. This block in the link is ring terminal. Anyone have any source for a spade terminal block?
Thanks,
David

Look at Dell City wire and West marine. Sorry I don't have the URL's but they should be an easy Google search. I use Dell City in my business and have been very happy with them. They are also a good source for battery cable size wire and terminals.

I'm going to replace all six of the Apex fuse blocks. I have no confidence in their integrity.
I'll post back after I get them all changed out.
