Mark-E-Mark Posted November 14, 2013 Report Posted November 14, 2013 Question is about connecting multiple amps to a battery. I want to run power wires directly to the battery in the trunk. Also maybe even the grounds. Back and forth between getting a dist. block for them or run strait back. Can I connect multiple leads to the terminals of the battery? And do I need to fuse those wires. I know better safe than sorry but is it needed? My amps are all fused. 3 amps. XS Power 950 batt. Also if I use dist blocks (I will make) can I have a 4g in with 3, 4g outs?

rockFord_Expedition Posted November 14, 2013 Report Posted November 14, 2013 What vehicle is this going in? Ground to the frame in the rear is the best option most often. Front to back ground runs have their place, but not in most daily set ups. Fuse any wire that touches a battery within 18" of the battery. The fuses aren't to protect amps, they are to protect people. You will make your own distribution blocks? Cool! Do you mean bus bars or actual blocks? To answer your question you can configure them however you want boss. Old School/New School RF Build March 2015 SOTM Winner How to crimp large wire
rockFord_Expedition Posted November 14, 2013 Report Posted November 14, 2013 Welcome to the forum BTW. Just a bit of advice, when posting a question the more relevant info you provide the better answers you will get. In this case, for example, if you were to provide info on the vehicle type and the electrical setup that would help.
