POWER WIRE SIZE
A minimum of 8 gauge or a maximum of 4 gauge wire is recommended dependent on the application.
The ground wire must be the same gauge as the power wire.
POWER LOCK CONNECTORS
Once you have run both the power and ground wires, then connect the cables to the amplifier. Cut off excess wire, and using wire strippers, strip the ends of the power and ground cables approximately 1/4 inch. Locate the PowerLockTM power and ground connector (supplied). With a small flat blade screwdriver, loosen the screws before attempting to insert the cable wires. Insert the wires into the appropriate hole, and tighten the screws. Once the wires are secure, the PowerLockTM may be plugged into the amplifier. The Power/Ground PowerLockTM will accommodate 6 gauge wire for the DCX 300.2 and DCX 600.4, and 4 gauge wire for the DCX 800.5 and DCX 1000.4.
