G. Power Distribution Top Panel & CBs
How to pair the cables for each CB:
There are a total of 8 cables that need to be matched. They are colour-coded so this should
be pretty easy.
The 2 thinnest cables go to the bottom left slots (DC out cables - CB#6 - White) while the 2
thickest cables go to the bottom right slots (Inverter cables - CB#7 - Green).
All other cables go to the topmost slots (AB – CB#4 - Blue - Left, SBB – CB#5 - Red - Right).
Each circuit breaker has an indication on each pole – AUX (left) & BAT (right),
(translated as OUT & IN respectively).
Also half of the cables have a black dot indication mark on their lugs to indicate an IN cable.
IN cables should always be placed in the right-most slots of each pair of slots.
1.
Take the Power Distribution Top Panel and start passing each of the 8 remaining cables
through the holes provided.
Place the white colour-coded cables in the bottom-left pair of slots (CB#6), making sure the
IN cable is placed in the right-most position of this slot.
IN cable coming from the Smartpass. OUT cable going to the SCP.
2.
Place the green colour-coded cable (coming out of the front of the octopus) to the right-
most slot of the bottom-right pair of slots (CB#7). Place the other green colour-coded cable
in the adjacent position of this slot.
IN cable coming from the front of the octopus. OUT cable going to the Inverter.
3.
Place the blue colour-coded cable (coming out of the rear of the octopus) to the right-most
position of the top-left pair of slots (CB#4). Fill the adjacent slot with the matching colour-
coded cable.
IN cable coming from the back of the octopus. OUT cable going to the Smartpass.
4.
Place the red colour-coded cable (coming out of the front of the octopus) to the right-most
position of the top-right pair of slots (CB#5). Fill the adjacent slot with the matching colour-
coded cable.
IN cable coming from the back of the octopus. OUT cable going to the Smartpass.
5.
When all cables have been slotted in, carefully lower the Power Distribution Top Panel into
position. No force is required here. Just make sure you clear the 2 fuseboxes which should
be perfectly straight if the panel is going to sit properly. Start lowering the panel backside-
first to clear any obstruction from the rear trunk wall.
6.
Once in position, fasten the panel with the 2 hex nuts using an Allen key.
Please note: you may need to use a thin screwdriver to position the bolt in the middle of the
hole where the hex nut is going to sit so that it can catch onto it.
