Likely 7.5 or 10 amps for 16 gauge wire. Without it, you would be potentially running 40-50 amps (whatever your main fuse is rated at) through a 16 gauge wire, it'll go up in smoke before the fuse pops.You can likely just stack both of those wires on the output side of your cutoff switch, the bus bar is redundant, but it may add some expandability for future upgrades or make for a neater install. Your choice there.</blockquote>
