I musta missed that discussion, but I dont think I would fuze or install a circuit breaker between the alternators output and the battery (via the ammeter). The alternators output wires to the Load (NOT battery/starter) side of the ammeter while the ammeters other Supply terminal wires to the battery often where the big cable atatches to a starter solenoid/switch. If I were going to fuze anything Id place a fuze or circuit breaker (to protect the wiring) on the ammeters load terminal where it goes out to feed loads like lights. You can fuze the ignition feed also if you like if its in an easy to get to location cuz you dont want to blow a fuze and she not still run and its hard to get to.
A 30 amp ammeter is okay for an alternator use, I prefer a 20 amp if its a genny for better resolution. I dont see any great need for a voltmeter but it wont hurt if you just gotta have one.
