IGN is 4th row & 5th row down far left on the diagram. It is not a fuse it is a plug-in connection for an auxiliary wire connection that is live only when the ignition is on.
BAT is the same type of connection for battery power - live all the time.
INST LPS - is a 5amp fuse for the instrument panel lamps & a few other devices (pwr locks)

The second box for the radio, to the left of the BAT connectors and to the right of the Wiper Fuse - WPR is not a fuse. It is a plug in connection for the radio, just like for the BAT (battery) and the IGN.

Take a look at the page from a service manual that I posted in this thread.....
