Default 1996 Pleasure-Way upgraded battery wiring

Hi, for those of you looking for space to relocate the various stacked terminals on your battery I am sharing my solution. I build a shelf next to the water heater under the bed and was able to re-run all wiring adding a cut-off switch and fuses holder. Hope this is useful. Have a nice day

Nicely done, clean wiring setup. I am assuming you are just protecting the wires with all those 30 amp fuses? They seem a little large to protect some of the possible electronic items that may be down line that should perhaps have smaller fuses for protection.

HI,
You are right on target, I only redirected and extended the existing wires and fused each circuit according to #10 AWG. Every circuit is subdivised and accurately protected down the line by way of the OEM distribution panel and some mods I’ve made overtime, the exception is the 125A fuse between the battery and the cut-off switch since my van was lacking both items. The goal was to avoid stacking terminals on the battery poles and hopefully provide a solution for those having the same issue. It was not an attempt at creating the ultimate electrical installation. I appreciate your comments . Have a nice day !
