703 dougmacf Breakers vs. fuses 2/4/2006 9:46:00

I have a 1989 2520MV which is due for a rewiring this Spring. 17 years of
random wires
added and nothing removed have left a wiring monkey puzzle behind the console
with no
regard for ABYC color coding.

Are there strong feelings either way re: fuses vs. circuit breakers when the
panel is
replaced?

If I add an on board ProMariner(?) "smart" charger using shore power, is there
need for or
can I also add a battery combiner/isolator for smart charging off the alternator
while
underway?

Is a panel with digital voltmeter to monitor separate battery bank charge state
a good idea
or overkill... I like monitoring system information but don't want to be
overloaded.

Thanks for your input,

Doug
