"Chaining" Cactus and a Major Scare.!! @ AZ Off-Grid (Unplugged)

I don't think I will ever run out of prickly pear that need 'chaining',, but I hope I never have another major scare.. One nice thing about having lots of time to contemplate projects, you have a chance to work out most of the kinks before ever beginning.. I needed the steel cable (dog run) for one project and another project that I needed it out of the way, so what better than to try to tackle them both.. I wanted to move a post,, that had been bent,, about a foot and a half and spin it around so it stood upright.. I use that post for the dog run,, so when I took it down to move I also used the cable to "chain" some prickly pear cactus off my property..
I have a 2000 watt/4000 peak AIMS inverter to power my household. While operating a few appliances it started whistling for about 5 seconds and then everything shut down.! .. I could not get the inverter to restart so I started looking for a replacement inverter..
After waiting an hour or so I tried to start the inverter again thinking maybe it had overheated.. Still, nothing.. so during a freakout moment I thought,, the fuse.!. ..Sure enough my inline 200Amp fuse had blown.. Replaced that and now everything is working fine again.. Now I need to get more fuses..
