I am in the process of hooking up my LEDS to my fuse panel and 6 bank switch. Right now, I am a little bit confused as how to set this up correctly and ensure I have proper protection for my wires. Though they are LEDs and draw little amperage, I would still like to protect my wires to be safe and peace of mind.
Here is my dilemma.
I will use my front NAV LEDs as the example, for this is what I am working on. Both LEDs are ran in PARALLEL. The negative wire from the LEDs is hooked up to the fuse panels negative end. I first tried hooking up the positive wire from the NAV LED to the back of the first switch to see if it was working properly and it was. But, my concern is that it is NOT protected, because the positive is NOT directly running from the fuse panel.
I am trying to get input before I start cutting and wasting material.
How do I go about properly setting this up?
Do I need to spilt the positive end and run them together like the example shown below?
Will this ensure proper protection of the wires?
And do I use this setup for all my loads (that is if it is the proper way)?
Thanks.
