A fuse is designed to protect the wire in the circuit, not the end item it's powering. There are some general rules of thumb, but I like to use a 7-10 amp for 18 gauge wires, 12-14 amp for 16 gauge, 20 amp for 14, and 30 amp for 12 gauge. The wire, and the fuse that protects it should be capable of handling about a 50% overload above the current draw of the accessory it's powering. I'm sure one of our electrical gurus will come along shortly and nitpick the above general suggestions. So be it!
