Just a thought....the noisy altenator may not be the cause but the effect. Like a circuit going to ground, pegging the amp meter and blowing the fuse.
Edit: Another thought...Your ampmeter should not see the short circuit if it's in your wiring harness, other than the wire to the battery. The ampmeter should only see the current going to and from the battery, if I'm correct. Good luck.
