WIRING

POWER AND GROUND

To ensure maximum output from your RUBICON amplifier, use high quality, low- loss power and ground cables and connections. The RUBICON amplifiers will accept up to 4 gauge power and ground cables. Determine from the chart below the minimum gauge power and ground wire for your application.

CIRCUIT BREAKERS AND FUSES

EXTERNAL

Like all audio components, the RUBICON amplifiers must be fused near the batters. A fuse or circuit breaker must be located within 18” of the batterv. This will

prevent a fire in the event of a shorted cable. See the chart below to determine the correct fuse value.

INTERNAL

The RUBICON amplifiers are fused with an automotive-type or Maxi-fuse. In the event of a blown power supply fuse(s), replace with the correct value fuse found in the chart below. Never replace the fuse with a higher value than what is sup- plied. This may result in amplifier damage and will void the warranty!
