magillaru Posted January 28, 2015 Report Posted January 28, 2015 I'm trying to plan how I'm going to run my power/ground cables from the rear batt bank to the amp. My rear bank is going to be accessible but not the easiest to get to so I want to use aluminum distro bars to be able to disconnect when needed......going to be using dual inputs so 6 runs neg & 6 runs pos. Will this work? Positive: Rear batt bank > aluminum bar > fuses > amp Negative: Rear batt bank > aluminum bar > amp Singer Alternators Team Asshole #anothershittysingerbuild
MrSkippyJ Posted January 28, 2015 Report Posted January 28, 2015 personally, I wouldn't want that many extra terminations. lots of chances to limit current and add resistance.

magillaru Posted January 28, 2015 Author Report Posted January 28, 2015 Yeah, me neither.......shit...... My main concern is if I have to disconnect the negative terminal to work on things, it's gonna be a pain in the ass....... EDIT: although that will save me a ton of time not having to make those distro bars and crimp more wire........ Singer Alternators Team Asshole #anothershittysingerbuild
Rck'nRF Posted January 30, 2015 Report Posted January 30, 2015 Isn't hooking the amp to the ground/metal on a vech's body better than running it from negative battery terminal like that?..
magillaru Posted January 31, 2015 Author Report Posted January 31, 2015 What is your theory for why it would be better? Singer Alternators Team Asshole #anothershittysingerbuild

magillaru Posted January 31, 2015 Author Report Posted January 31, 2015 But this from my rear bank to the amp...... Also, I'm going to be running ~10k so 6 runs of 2/0 welding cable will be much better than running to metal/chassis...... Am I missing something? *That video is exactly why I decided to do 2 neg runs and 2 pos runs from front to rear. Singer Alternators Team Asshole #anothershittysingerbuild
MrSkippyJ Posted January 31, 2015 Report Posted January 31, 2015 no i think you are good, video isn't for as much power as you are running. F150: Stock 2019 Harley Road Glide: Amp: TM400Xad - 4 channel 400 watt Processor: DSR1 Fairing (Front) 6.5s -MMats PA601cx Lid (Rear) 6x9s - TMS69
magillaru Posted January 31, 2015 Author Report Posted January 31, 2015 no i think you are good, video isn't for as much power as you are running. That was my understanding. Singer Alternators Team Asshole #anothershittysingerbuild
Miguels Posted January 31, 2015 Report Posted January 31, 2015 get rid of the positive aluminum bar.. its not needed. the ground you dont need it either if the batteries will be near the amp my logshttp://www.stevemead...-my-new-set-up/my blow through loghttp://www.stevemead...future-updates/ 96 ss http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/164094-96-impala-ss-build/
