Volvo IPS950 - Starting Battery Cable Area

Main switch
A main switch must be installed on the positive side.
When the cables are run through bulkheads both the
positive
and negative cables must be fitted with rubber
bushings. Locate the main switch on the outside of the
engine compartment, but as close to the engine as
possible in order to reduce cable length.
