Install a Battery mounted Fuse Block 

I use this on my pickup truck for adding separate light circuits ect. No need to cut or splice into stock lugs.... Can even use it on the side post terminals for more room and no need main disconnecting power...

Thanks for the referral. I bought one for each battery and it cleaned up my wiring at my batteries. Thanks

Thanks for the heads up. I bought a boat a few months ago and need to do some rewiring, the timing is perfect for me!

I noticed a black wire installed on that 12 volt positive fuse block. According to ABYC standards, black wiring is to be reserved for AC circuits only. This is to prevent confusion between a DC circuit and an AC circuit which could potentially lead to fatal consequences.

Good to see you back. There are few, if not any, comprehensive marine electrical videos out there. I would request a tutorial on on wire routing and organization practices. I can't even find it in ABYC literature.

This device is genius and almost fuel proof

While I agree the end product is much neater, it seems to go against my instinct that batteries should only have the main battery wires attached. I'd use a sub-panel for the essential gear..The main reason for this would be battery access for maintenance or removal. I come from an aviation background so maybe that is where I "learned" this.

With all the wires to the battery terminated at a central fuse block, it's a simple process to remove the block from the battery if the battery ever has to be pulled or replaced. Pop in the new battery and make one connection for all the circuits.

Thanks for the video. Maybe I missed it but should there not also be a terminal fuse block on that stud between the battery and the large outgoing positive cable? Thanks!

another good video what kind a wire cutter do you recommend

Wayne, I noticed you did not tin the wires with solder before installing them, but just crimped then in place. Is that your preferred electrical way to connect electronics, and if so why. Want to hear your advice about that. I've always tinned wires prior to installing, and would like to hear you feed back, Perhaps others would benefit from your apparch.

Would I be able to run my positive wires off the fuse block to a switch panel and loop negative wires back to a negative buss bar attached to the battery ?

Capt. Canning Back in the day I worked on line crew for Georgia Power. Whenever we made a connection between dissimilar metals, particularly aluminium to copper, we always used a joint compound, something along the lines of AFL's No. 2 Electrical Joint Compound. To the best of my knowledge line crews used the same material in coastal areas, so I presume it works in a maritime environment. Most of the pre-packaged connectors already had a joint compound in them, but if they didn't standard practice was to apply a joint compound before making either a squeezed on or bolted connection. I've seen videos about making a good butt joint that take steps to protect a connection from corrosion, but I don't see corrosion protection routinely employed when making connections like the ring connectors in this video. Is there a reason not to use something along the lines of EJC No.2, or are marine squeeze on connectors provided with some kind of corrosion protection? Thanks!

Interesting. one question. i'm seeing several red (positive) wires leading to the block but only one black wire. I'd expect to see a red/black pair for each load added. Do you handle this differently. Thanks for the post.

Don't you need to install another one on the negative terminal battery for all the negative wires?

All of these accessories are hooked up directly to the battery right? Wouldn't it be better to have a sub-panel after a relay so they only get power if the ignition key is switched on. Otherwise, if you forget to turn off all accessories individually you will deplete your battery.

I have a deep cycle & a starting battery- which battery should I pull juice from- for the fuse block ? (lights, livewell). Thanks.

How big is this unit I want to put on bike if possible
