Hi All,
Tom from the University of Leicester here! According to EV3.6.4 the AMS voltage sense wires must be appropriately fused using either fusible link wire or conventional fuses. The conventional fuse method is not an option but does anyone have any leads on fusible link wire?
I have found a few options from AWC, Lawson and White Products but they are all only rated to a maximum of 50V, does this not then conflict with the FSAE rule stating that all wires in the container must be rated to the maximum system voltage EV3.3.8 (in our case being 88V)?

Any pointers on the topic would be deeply appreciated!
Many many thanks,
