OK,
So I am about to start my electric portion on the boat. Right now I have nothing hooked up and still waiting for parts. Below is the diagram I think should be correct when I set up all my electric. See the other diagram below for the switch.
Questions?
1. Fishfinder: Can it be wired to the fuse block just to help prevent me running wire all the way to the battery? I know not to run the FF on a TM line (interference, etc..) but running it to the block should be ok??? It wont be going on a switch. Don't think there would be interference issues
2. Should I buy a IN-LINE fuse for the main battery and run it between the motor and the bat. switch or run it between the battery and the bat. switch, or do I need one at all??? My Trolling Motor WILL have one.
3. I would also like to set up a on-board charging system. How or where does that fit into my diagram??
This page just outlines the switch panel and the block. My understanding is that the back of the switches will have a neg and positive wire running to the block, while the 2 wires from the accessories will attached to the switch itself. If your asking why two wires from the back, it is because the switches may be LED lite.
So is everything right???
