Here is a relay that you could use its rated for 30 amps.



Here is the plug for it.



Here are a couple options for an inline fuse, I like the second one it crimps to the wire and could be heat shrinked to seal it.

I prefer mountable relay sockets to mountable relays. I have also taken to installing a toggle to run the lift pump on all vehicles for priming and diagnostic purposes
