If your changing a 60 amp fuse,I would check the alternator,for an internal short. Take the big wire off the back of the Alternator, see if problem goes away,by replacing the fuse again, very carefully,actually as soon as the fuse touches the metal part of fuse holder and sparks heavy ,or blows the fuse again,then check the big wire going to the alternator.
