Mystery wire between buss bars

Found this burned out wire while troubleshooting fusible links. Connects directly between the 24v buss bar and the ground buss bar.

Doesn't appear to be a fusible link, maybe a capacitor? I am not great at reading automotive electrical schematics - I couldn't find it.

So, what WAS it, what did it do, is it necessary, and if so where can I get a replacement. Napa etc have no clue.

Yep, it's a capacitor, for RF noise suppression. If you are going to run a military radio you might want it. Otherwise, as these gentlemen have already said....
