I have seven components that need to be fed power, and have a question in regards to as if my wiring idea for fused distribution blocks is ok. I have three 0g-4g fused dist blocks that accept 2 0g "in" each, and 3 4g "out" each. What I was going to do is run 0g into one 0g outlet and one 0g out from the other 0g outlet to the 0g "in" outlet on the other dist block and repeat this to the third dist block. Then I would run the 4g from the diff fused dist blocks to the appropriate componets. Would this work/be okay? If not, how else should I fuse my components? Thank you.

whether or not it's ok depends on the current your trying to tap. Basic rule of thumb all ur "out" wires bundled together going to your components shouldn't be thicker than the "in" power line. Otherwise it's a design that would work although fanning out would be a better method.

Then how do you suggest I wire it?  What would I do in the "fanning out" method?!  Thank you.
