[QUOTE="silentbravo, post: 491207, member: 29669"] [b][size=5]Main Electrical Rewiring 6/20/2021[/size][/b] I bought the Blue Sea Systems Mini Add-A-Battery Kit - 65A, Part number: 7649 This kit comes with an On-Off-Combine switch, and an Automatic Charging Relay, that will connect to a second battery. As always Blue Sea systems parts are top notch, I'm a huge fan. I found a spot near the main starting battery to locate the switch and ACR. Built a small panel from aluminum angle for them [ATTACH type="full" alt="1.jpg"]112156._xfImport[/ATTACH] I have mounted the parts to the aluminum angle and started to prewire the main battery cables here. [ATTACH type="full" alt="2.jpg"]112157._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="3.jpg"]112158._xfImport[/ATTACH] Just a little look at the "in progress" electrical. It takes a lot of tools and pieces to do good electrical work.... [ATTACH type="full" alt="4.jpg"]112159._xfImport[/ATTACH] Here they are mounted to the splashwell. The starting battery sits right under this in the corner. [ATTACH type="full" alt="5.jpg"]112160._xfImport[/ATTACH] I added a second panel to mount breakers and an isolated ground stud. I wish I would have used the full length angle piece so I had more room for parts down there.. [ATTACH type="full" alt="6.jpg"]112161._xfImport[/ATTACH] Here's some of the wiring coming together "behind the scenes". Big ground stud is super full, but works. [ATTACH type="full" alt="8.jpg"]112162._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="9.jpg"]112163._xfImport[/ATTACH] Here is the final wiring. [ATTACH type="full" alt="10.jpg"]112164._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="11.jpg"]112165._xfImport[/ATTACH] I'll post the wiring diagram and explanation in next post. [/QUOTE]
