or making or breaking any connections to the batteries.
For safety, a fuse should be installed on the hot input/output battery wire, as close to the battery as possible.
Refer to the DC Wire Size Table to determine proper battery wire gauges.

G) Status and Summary & Pre-LVD Activation Alarm Contact Wiring

A color-coded status wiring harness for up to six sets of contacts has been provided with the PFM for ease of installation 

and to ensure proper connections. This harness is designed for installations which employ NEWMAR Power Modules, 

though it may be modifi ed for use with other types of equipment, as well, provided they are equipped with Form C or 

Normally Open (N.O.) failure contacts.
All status contact connectors are for alarm inputs only and each is labeled INPUT. Two 3 position terminal block 

connectors are provided for the summary alarm output and the Pre-LVD alarm. The output of the PFM summary alarm 

and Pre-LVD alarms is Form C.
Refer to 

FIGURE 5

 below for the wiring instructions which follow.

FIGURE 5: Typical Status Contact and Summary Alarm Wiring

Note: This diagram depicts a system employing NEWMAR 2nd generation Power Modules, however, any equipment 

which utilizes Form C or Normally Open (N.O.) alarm contacts may be wired to the PFM's six Status Contact input 

connectors.
