I current running 3 amp. All amp togther is about 1700 watts. I am using 1/0 wire and a 150 amp fuse. is the 150 amp fuse Ok or i need a bigger fuse.

From the 1/0 wire it goes to a Fused D- block which have a 90amp (2) 60amp fuse.

You should be able to use those tables to figure out the appropriate fuse size.

IN the table is say that 1/0 wire will need about 325 amp, why does 1/0 wire kit only provide only 100 amp fuse?

Whoa, that's pretty bad. I mean, I bought four gauge wire and got a 100amp fuse amp and thought that was bad. What brand was the wiring kit?
