no power. battery is ok. fuse links?

I've had fusible links blow on my jeep before and this seems the same. I turn the key and have nothing. there is no power to any lights. nothing. Where should I start looking?
Thanks

If battery is okay, I'd check positive cables and ground. Work your way out from there. Nothing to the fuse box?

Re: no power. battery is ok. fuse links?

Power to entire car comes through pins A4 and G5 on the c100 bulkhead connector at the drivers side of the firewall. Those two get there power from the starter positive battery terminal and there are fusible links in he circuit too, located right after the connector on the starter. I had this happen to me before and I hate the way the factory did this. I am I the midst of redoing my old TPI harness to eliminate fusible links and overall better power distribution while running most of the power circuits in the engine bay through a fuse/relay center

Fusible links are on the starter. The link is the actual wire, not the white cyls. No power on the lights or fuseblock points to band fusible links or simply not connected to the battery
