Aux Power Feed

So now I have the dual battery system in place, its time to get some load running on the secondary bat. Rather than just plugging everything into the battery directly and having a mass of wires hanging off the terminals (which I hate); I decided to run a fuse block to handle the termination and load.

So the bits for this build include:
•100 Amp Manual Reset Circuit Breaker
•Baintech 6 Way Fuse Block
•1 Meter 4 Gauge "Positive Cable"
•200mm 4 Gauge "Negative Cable"
•6 x 4 Gauge Cable Lugs
•13mm Split Conduit
•Cable Ties, Heat Shrink, Self Tapping Screws
