Wiring of Anderson Plug

Hi Ian,

Pretty simple installation so here is a diagram

I have not specifically shown the earth or neg wire but a good chassis earth at the back of the car is good enough provided a good chassis earth is pressent at the Aux battery

Make sure you fit the +ve connector into the +ve marked section on the Anderson. Real easy to get one set wrong/swapped frack to bunt.

Double check all connections with a multimeter first before EVER plugging the Andersons together. Not a pretty sight if you inadvertently got it wrong.

Hundreds of amps running in a dead short circuit. Make sure both/all +ve connections to batteries have a heavy fuse in them so IT will blow and avoid the flames.

All the earth cables will have to be the same size or bigger if you want everything to operate properly with out troublesome voltage drop causing insufficient charge to batteries and poor performance of appliances.

Ian.
You could not have timed your question better, just got back from buying plugs & about to ask the same.
Hope you don't mind.
Cheers
