Re: Wiring upgrade case study

Thanks. You are both correct, my question was how to do it RIGHT, now how to make it work. I pulled a second wire, so now both pumps run back to the panel.

Re: Wiring upgrade case study

Okay, reviving this thread. Maybe this means I’m actually making progress, maybe not. A man can dream.

I have a tank water pump and a lake water pump both on the same circuit. The wire goes...

Re: Wiring upgrade case study

So, here is the wiring diagram. The red wires are the way the system is set up now, the black wires are what I'm thinking of doing about the 1-2-Both-Off switch. For whatever reason, this seems to...

Re: Wiring upgrade case study

So I’ve got a wiring diagram which I will post soon, but I realize that how the battery selector switch is wired is not my main question (which I took to be the reason people were asking for a wiring...

Re: Wiring upgrade case study

My first discover: I got an assortment pack of terminals, and my smallest ring terminal is a #10. I also got a 20A Blue Sea terminal block, but the largest terminal it holds is a #6. Frustrating,...

Re: Wiring upgrade case study

Re: Wiring upgrade case study

Re: Wiring upgrade case study

Thanks, all. This is exactly the kind of discussion I’m looking for.

This morning’s discovery is the crimp connector coming off the middle switch, one from the left. It’s not visible in the...
