Exclamation Blew my amp fuse!

Hi I have a 99 gs300 and I recently installed a amp and sub the night I installed it everything was fine and I also gave someone a jump as well. On my way home my windshield wipers came on and off on their on then my battery light comes on. I turn the car off and when I turned it back on my gauges, radio, taillights, brake lights, windows, power locks, moonroof, power steering did not work. The engine turns on fine with out a problem, interior lights work fine, and headlights as well. Found out that the there was 80 amp fuse for the alt which was suppose to be 120 amp. I also got another alternator and everything worked fine after that. Not even a mile from the shop I'm listen ing to my music and the windshield wipers came on and off again and the battery light was going on and off. I pull over turn off car and turn it back on and everything not working again and my mechanic said the new 120 fuse blew. Can somebody shed some light to what could possibly be wrong? Thanks

Did you hook up the cabels correctly when you gave the person a jump start?
