Solar fuse in pre-wire

DYI 4 100 watt panels in new globetrotter. Looking at adding in line fuse to each panel as assume there is not a fuse in AS pre-wire?

I did not put a fuse on my solar panels because I believed my Airstream's electrical diagram in the owner's manual that stated there was a fuse installed. When I researched the Zamp Rooftop Box that is installed on my Airstream, the descriptions said there was a 40A fuse installed. Here is a marketing picture of the Zamp rooftop box showing the fuse installed: https://www.rvupgradestore.com/3-Por...-p/19-2768.htm I believe Uncle_Bob added a fourth SAE port to his and said there was a 40A fuse. But recently, Kalashnikov had a problem with his prewire so he removed his Zamp rooftop box and there was no fuse installed. Therefore, I do not know how to answer this question. I continue to use my rooftop box with the assumption there is a 40A fuse inside.
