Measure the resistance of the solenoid. Then use the formula
E=I * R
E is voltage. Id used 14v for that
I is the current or amperage. Thats the number you are trying to find.
* is what i use for the multiplication symbol.
R is the resistance. You measured that.
Youll want to use a fuse higher than that but not by much. Make sure the wire you use is capable of carrying the current also.
