It is a big wire prob 10 or 12 gauge that goes to the fuse with a 20 amp fuse. This is on a 1972 Dodge Demon. Any ideas what this is? Thank you.

Cant think of any other large draws. As said the headlights are circuit breaker protected (instead of a fuse) inside the headlight switch live every 24 hour block of time like it's your last day on earth
