By rule you can only connect the PCM to the 20 amp fuse connection (R52). I think it is a bad idea to power the PCM from there anyway since you allowed to power is from one of regular circuit breaker connections with a 20 amp circuit breaker (R56). Both cases specify 20 amp protection not 25. I don't like spike relays. The PCM is a way better solution.
