Wiring
Wire the large battery wires. The black wire is connecteddirectly from the half connector to the PD (Power Distribution) board.
The red wire from the half connector is attached to the 120amp circuit breaker and then on to the PD board.
Note: the 120 amp breaker uses SAE threads while the PDboard uses Metric threads. Do not swap the nuts!
