Sorted. Ish. Except nearest 40a fuse link is a million miles away and no shops sell them.

Just gonna have to order one in and stick some house hold fuse wire on temporarily.

30a will be ok wownt it. Can't even see the fans pulling 5a. So even during start up etc should hardly be any load on them.

Seem ok to you guys?

You can go down with the fuse ratings, never up
