Make sure your engine ground strap is nicely secured.

You said you replaced the alternator. You can try unplugging the alternator and turning the engine on and see if the fuse blows. This is just to rule out the alternator.

System must not be grounding right then. Re-check the wires on your system so you can hook it up again!
