JAD900.5
To Source Unit
Wiring: The JAD900.5 ve channel amplier requires a direct connection to the vehicle battery
to provide power for operation. Power connections should be circuit protected to protect
the vehicle from any electrical short, re hazard, amplier damage, or even injury. If several
ampliers are connected to one main power wire connection, we recommend to electrically
distribute the power connection to each amplier with its own form of circuit protection. Before
making any type of wire or cable connections to your amplier, disconnect the vehicle’s battery
to avoid any electrical shorts. Below are recommendations for proper power cable installation
and connections.
- Make the ground wire as short as possible.
- Connect the ground wire to a paint and corrosion free, solid, metal area of the vehicle’s
chassis.
- For a solid ground connection, it is recommended an additional ground wire of the same
gauge as the main power wires (or larger) between the battery’s post and the vehicle chassis.
- Install an in-line fuse within 18” of the battery’s positive terminal.
- Place an additional in-line fuse within 18” of the amplier.
Note: In the event you need to remove the amplier from your vehicle, the ground wire should be
the last wire disconnected from the amplier, just the opposite as it was when you installed it.
