Check that the wire leading to the clutch is not shorted or missing insulation. It is very close to the back side of the pulley. I am trying to assimilate anything that may have dealt with tightening the belt. The only thing I can think of is excessive play in the bearing allowing the pully to chafe the ac clutch wire.

Honestly I don't think this is it, but I can't think of anything else that tightening the belt would affect your fuse.

Also, be sure you have the right amperage fuse installed. I only mention this because the PO of my car put a 25A in which worked fine on everything but max ac.
