Hi people

Finally have both a finished (or so i thought) control box, and a 32A circuit. Plugged in my control box for the first time and turned the key. Pop... Fuse dead (i think). The Circuit breaker did not go, so i guess that's a positive.

I literally have no idea where to go from here. Any suggestions?

Yes, complete noob when it come to anything electrical.
 
Sounds like a short circuit. I would try an ohm meter and ohm out the circuit.
Make sure to disconnect the power first so you don't damage the ohm meter.

Most ohm meters have a continuity setting. That is. Shorting the two leads together results in a tone. Start by testing the fuse and report back.

Remember...... Power off first......
