Does Go Power Solar Extreme Charging System Have Fuse Between Panels and Controller

Question:

The installation instructions show one fuse installed both between the solar panel and solar controller and then other one between the solar controller and the battery. Yet in the installation video, no fuse was installed on the wires coming from the 3 solar panels. Also, I only see 1 fuse in the kit, not 2. Is a fuse necessary between the panels and controller?

While there is some variances in how the Go Power Solar panel kit part # 34282185 installs depending on the setup the diagram I found in the install instructions only shows a fuse between the controller and the battery so that would be what you would want to do. This matches the install video you mentioned as well.
