If you have a 100amp service to your disconnect and the new controller manufacturer is recommending 45 amp. What size should the disconnect fuses be ?

Usually the controller manufacturer will list the mainline disconnect size on the print. In your case they are probably calling out a 45 amp disconnect so 45 amp fuses. They should of calculated this load off of your survey of the equipment being modded. What equipment and controller are you going with?
