Nivram Posted May 21, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2012 I have the 1/0 going into a distribution block that splits into 4ga so both amps are getting 4ga, the other 4ga wires are the grounds that are going to my 1/0ga ground wire That tape always gets hot tho and its melted though a few times. i guess i need to fix my ground and just run 2 grounds.

skittlesRgood Posted May 21, 2012 Report Share Posted May 21, 2012 yeah... wtf is going on with that splice on the blue wire? its getting hot? thats cause the connection sucks are there is resistance there. take off the electrical tape and take a pic for us.

skittlesRgood Posted May 21, 2012 Report Share Posted May 21, 2012 do you think what you did is the correct way to wire a system? honestly. or do you think you went ghetto on it? this might help you with your connections. http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/139795-the-ultimate-answer-on-solder-vs-crimp/page__fromsearch__1 If I answered you in a well mannered, informative way, you asked a good question or had a good attitude.
