Electrical Connections
Electrical connections to the unit are made using several terminals and re-
movable connectors located on the back of the unit. The unit is protected by
a 20 amp fuse on the input power and each output is protected by a 20 amp
fuse. Wiring diagrams on pages 36 and 39 show detail of how to wire the
siren to the vehicle and its various accessories.
Wire Size and Termination
Please review pages 34 and 39 to determine the minimum wire size used for
each connection. Please also use the following guidelines when wiring your
siren:
•
Use only high quality crimp connectors.
•
Make sure all connections are tight.
•
Route the wiring to prevent wear, overheating, and/or interference with
air bag deployment.
•
Use grommets and sealant when passing through compartment walls.
•
Minimize the number of splices to reduce voltage drop.
•
Ground connections can be made to substantial chassis components,
but preferably directly to the negative of the vehicle battery.
•
Install and check all wiring before connection to vehicle battery.
