Power

Using Larger Gauge Wire

The gold B+ terminal on the amplifier must be connected directly to the positive (+) terminal of the battery with an appropriate size fuse. (See the Specifications Table for more information.) This provides a power source with a low voltage drop and low noise. Be sure to use the supplied fuse and fuse holder within 18" (46cm) of the battery’s positive terminal. Failure to do so may cause damage to the vehicle and the amplifier.

If the power wire must be extended beyond 17' (518cm), we recommend you use 8 gauge, or heavier, stranded wire.

If using a larger gauge wire than that supplied with your new Punch 4-Channel, cut the wire casing on the diago- nal as shown in the following diagram. Insert the wire into the connector. Twist the wire around so that the long end of the insulation faces up. Bend the wire prior to tightening in place. This will make it easier for attaching the end cap to the amplifier.

Note: For easier assembly, only 5/8" (1.6cm) of wire should be bare.
