Re: Best way to Install a Power Inverter, Any Ideas?

Excuse the dumb questions. I should know this stuff by now, but the inverters are new to me and dont wanna F* up


Quote:

Just fuse the power supply line outside the pass compartment, and put a switch on the POS line, so it only runs when needed.




Elaborate, this stuff is still new to me So you are saying to run the cables outside and not in the cabin? And how do I install a switch on those thick cables?

Quote:

I'd recommend a disconnect switch at the battery, hardwired the entire way back.




Add a disconnect only on the (+) cable of the inverter?

Quote:

An alternative would be use a ford relay and an in cab switch




Is this relay different from normal relays? And how do I go about installing this in-cabin switch with the cables being so thick. Cant rememeber the AWG #, but its thick.

Quote:

Lastly,heat kills them- ventilation very important. Need to blow out the fan occasionally. Good Luck.




I'll have it hard-mounted in the cargo area, posibily even have a bracket made up and bolted where the 3rd row seats were. Nothing will be around it so it will have plenty of fresh air.

Thanks for the advice guys,
Angelo
