trim tab wiring

anyone know what recommended wire size and fuse are for trim tab pumps? I thought I recalled seeing a 50amp fuse in an old post. Seems pretty large. Wire runs are about 4-5 feet direct to battery.
thanks

8 gauge wire is fine for the trim and drive pumps.There should be a 90 amp fuse block install on the solenoid post on both pumps. 20 amp fuse to power the your dash switch. Good luck with it.
