In machinery where you know the current demands, good practice is to size the fuses for the load. Cars are a good example of this.

A little late now, but you can buy fuse blocks so you can individually fuse the circuits. ATC style fuse blocks can be had for cheap. Cross the Road recomends strongly that their motor controller have circuit protection.

Given that the current draw of the loads(motors?) connected to the victors was not given, I assumed that it was not known.
