Please don't use all caps. The capacitor won't be of that much help to you, sell it. Mixing sub sizes will be more work than it's worth to do properly. Decide between the 10 or the 15s.

also IMO, fuses are better than the circuit breakers. I bought one for my install and it wouldn't even fit my 0gauge wire (bought 200A breaker). Also, after trying to force the wire in, the breaker broke in pieces. Just stick with fuses.

Stop with the capitals!

Don't mix different subs in the same system
