I figure I need >8-gauge wire for the b-lead which will make for a 12-gauge fuse link. 10AWG is big enough for this short, single strand run hence a 14AWG fusible link is called for. A yellow PDIG butt splice should do it. You may need to double the strip length on the fusible link and double it back to boost the amount of 14AWG copper in the splice.

I was planning on making this an "idiot" light that just indicates the switch is on, not that the pump is actually working. I can verify pump operation other ways. My plan is to wire the light directly from the boost pump switch. Input s ide of the switch will be feed from fuse panel. Output side will have two wire s, one to the boost pump and other to LED light. That would work just fine.
