Power Wiring
Charging System
In some cases, the installation of just one (1) amplifier could be enough to
overload your factory electrical system (i.e., alternator). Depending on the
state of your electrical system and overall condition of your vehicle, you may
need to upgrade your alternator and battery. After the vehicle is started, the
alternator provides the power to your electrical system, not the battery. When
the engine is running, the alternator is your main source of power. Upgrading
the alternator should be your first consideration if you should experience a
voltage drop in the system when operating your audio system. Adding
capacitors and/or batteries without upgrading the alternator will only make the
problem worse because these devices put an extra load on the alternator. After
upgrading the alternator, capacitors and/or batteries can be installed if desired.
NOTE: Use #4 gauge wire with a 100A Max current draw when installing
your amplifier.
Power Terminal (+12V/B+)
Connect the main power wire to the battery, within 18 inches from the positive
(+) battery post, using an adequate size fuse or circuit breaker capable of
handling the current of the selected power wire. A fuse or circuit breaker must
be installed to prevent a possible electrical fire should the main power wire
short to ground.
Remote Terminal (REM)
Connect the power antenna or amplifier turn-on lead from the receiver to the
amplifier remote terminal.
Ground Terminal (GND)
Make the ground lead as short as possible, leaving enough length to complete
the installation and to allow for any service that may be needed at a later date.
To ensure a good ground, scrape away any paint or undercoating to expose
bare metal. Use a "ring" terminal of the proper gauge and an "outside star
washer" (between the chassis and ring terminal) when making your ground
connection. Although you’ve scraped away the paint to expose bare metal, the
outside star washer will help to "bite into" the chassis for a tight, secure
ground.
Replacement Fuse Requirements (FUSE)
The Power 5500 requires one 70 amp MAXI type fuse, located on the rear
panel.
Fuse or Circuit Breaker
Install as close to the
battery as possible.
Battery Terminal
Adaptor
Drill hole in chassis sheet metal.
