If a "quick blow" 150 Amp cartrige fuse blows...

What would the equivalent 110 Amp slow blow circuit breaker do?

The manufacturer has a 110 slow blow circuit breaker as the standard. The factory (OEM used a 150 Amp ANN) which is an quick blow. It's big electric winch.

Generally motor loads use "slow blow" circuit protect to avoid this sort of thing. The wire size is not an issue, nor the runs. it's very intermittent, but when it blows, it a pain in the nec, not to mention the fuses which retail for $32 (even through I can find them from less.)
