Do you put fuse before or after switch?
In most cases, I would prefer to put the fuse immediately after the main power switch. That way, with the power switch off, both terminals of the fuse are “dead”, so there is no shock hazard while changing the fuse, providing the switch is off.
Can you install a fuse tap backwards?
You actually can install a fuse tap backwards. If you install it in the incorrect orientation power for both devices will flow through the original fuse and make it more likely to blow (though not that likely since dash cams don’t draw much).

Can I use a 240v fuse in a 12v circuit?
Yes, it will be fine. Fuses sometimes have a maximum voltage rating that they can safely interrupt, but that’s a function of the distance between the terminals and the insulating material used. (For instance, most car-type blade fuses are rated for 32 volts.)
Does it matter which way you install fuse?
It doesn’t matter which end of the fuse holder gets used for going to the battery and which goes to the jack. Fuses don’t require current to flow through them in a certain direction so either way is fine. But typically line is the side that the power comes in on and load is the power going out.
Are add a fuse safe?
Add-a-fuses are designed to safely power your dash cam. Add-a-fuses are compatible with all hardwire kits and is the safest method to protect your vehicle form overcurrent. As long as your hardwire kit has a ACC+ (Red) and BATT+ (Yellow) wire, you will be able to use add-a-fuses with your hardwire kit.
What is the difference between switch fuse and fuse switch?
A “fused switch” is a switch in series with a fuse in a single housing. The mechanics of the switch are seperate to the fuse. A “switched fuse” is switch containing a fuse, the fuse (and carrier) physically move when switching occurs.
Can you use a fuse as a switch?
In those applications the fuse can even be the switch. Just pull the fuse and the circuit is now dead in automotive applications and a switch may be unnecessary. It isn’t always, but you ask “why should you”? The fuse then protects against faults in the wiring around the switch and the switch itself.
How do you wire up a fuse panel?
Now, to wire up your fuse panel, look at the following diagram. Note that only one wire power wire can run a few circuits on the fuse panel. You use jumper wires. Some aftermarket ones come with them, and others you just make your own. Now, for a simple system with basic accessories and a newer switch, here’s a good way to get wired up:
