ATC fuses in 700/900/850/S70....No Handy place to hook up alligator clips.
To make it easy to measure current flow in ATC fused circuits. Make this home brew ATC plug to use with either with a VOM or an analog ammeter.

Most VOM's max out at 10 Amps.
Find a 0-50 amp ammeter with shunt about $15 at Ebay.

Use a Dremel tool to grind away some plastic at the top of the fuse on only one side.
The metal fuse legs are smaller in width at the top and can be bent up in
an "L" shape (or Ell if you're a plumber) to have a place to solder your two wires.

Sorry, Brickboard wont upload two photos.
