Hi cupcake.
These are a "standard" Combiner Fuse:

They fit the MidNite Combiner Fuse Holder, and, quite possibly others.
FWIW, VicOff Grid - Two systems -- 4 SW+ 5548 Inverters, Surrette 4KS25 1280 AH X2@48V, 11.1 KW STC PV, 4X MidNite Classic 150 w/ WBjrs, Beta KID on S-530s, MX-60s, MN Bkrs/Boxes. 25 KVA Polyphase Kubota diesel, Honda Eu6500isa, Eu3000is-es, Eu2000, Eu1000 gensets. Thanks Wind-Sun for this great Forum. -

Would be very surprised if any Big Box retailer would carry them.
It is possible that some Wholesale Electrical supply house MIGHT stock them.
AND, if you are ordering them on-line, be careful that you get a Cartridge fuse -- there are some Auto-type Blade fuses under the "ATM" banner. Sometimes the ATM Cartridge fuse is referred as ' ATM1 '.
N AZ Wind & Sun fills orders rapidly, often with same-day shipping ... they may even be able to do US Mail (if your desert location is in the USA).
