Re: Main Power Terminal Blocks?
Guys,
As much as these rail mounted blocks add weight and space, they are standard equipment in most modern electrical installations. Be sure to use the jumper accessory to connect all of the positive blocks together and all of the negative blocks together. These blocks will take #6 wire and I recommend using only #6 to feed the 40 amp Maxi block. It is best to strip back 1-1/2" of insulation and then fold over the strands, twice, so that they fill the entry hole in the Maxi block. This will give you a reliable connection that will not loosen over time.
Please watch the team updates for a change on these though. I feel there is an error in the electrical diagram as far as the negative battery side wiring is concerned. Negative lead wiring should follow the same distribution as the positive lead wiring, i.e. all black wiring should return to the DIN blocks, not a common point. Remember all current flowing out of the battery on the red wire, returns to the battery through the black wire.
