Power Wiring GuidelinesAmplifier Power Endplate1. Connect the 12V “POS” terminal (FUSED +12VDC) to thebattery with 10 gauge (or heavier) wire.2. Fuse the wire within 18” of the battery with a 30 amp fuseor circuit breaker. Although the amplifier is already fused,a short between the amplifier and the battery could causea fire. See the section titled “Warnings”.3. Connect the “NEG” terminal to the vehicle chassis with theshortest possible 10 gauge wire. Do not make thisconnection directly to the battery. Do not use seat or seatbelt bolts for grounding. Do not share this connection withother equipment. A “single point” ground for high currentconnections will degrade the system’s performance.Inadequate power supply connections will result inREDUCED POWER OUTPUT.4. Connect the “TURN ON” terminal to the radio’s “amp turnon” or in some cases “power antenna” lead. Thisconnection requires very little current and may beconnected with a light gauge wire such as #22. Applying12 volts to this terminal turns the amplifier on.5
