Don't over think it.... Follow the flow... From batt+ to power distribution strip on one side of fuses, through a fuse, to positive terminal on other side of fuse, from there it goes to a switch on the dash, out of switch to say a bilge pump, back up the the ground bus on the side of the fuse block and back to batt-.....
It's simple as can be as long as you visualize it as a path instead of a bunch of random wires. EDIT: to be clear I am NOT saying it is wired right... I'm addressing the request for a pic of one wired right... Last edited by smokeonthewater; 06-12-2016 at 09:46 PM. |

is it possible that the po just used that as a bus bar and the circiuts are fused at the switch panel??...otherwise it is just wrong....

its just wrong, no fuses at switch panel. i texted him a pic and tried to explain to him, not to be a di ck but because i know he is putting another boat together and he needs it to be safe. he says his stuff is right cause everything worked and when i tried to explain again he said i was wrong cause his gps quit working and he had to change a fuse to make it work again!
alrighty then... as much as i hate all the extra work i think im gonna go through EVERY wire and completely rewire this boat. putting this rig together to take my little boy fishing and i aint gonna find out the hard way! po rewired the whole boat and so will i. |

That's ugly!
Couldn't find a pic.. For those of you not envisioning this, it's easier if you just mentally separate the ground buss (black wires on top) and the fuse panel because they are not connected in any way, I prefer to install separate ones if I can, makes the mess a little less. Then just look at what's left, a bar connecting all the circuits and then some fuses that are not in the circuit at all. If you are not sure if yours is done correctly a simple test would be to turn everything on, then pull out one fuse at a time & make sure the matching device turns off. Electrical fires on a boat scare the sh!t out of me guys, I've had an experience or two. :-0

The middle ones are where all of the positive accys should be connected... Pos from the battery should be on the other side of the fuses from them and the last strip is for all negative wires.
