Connections
Power / Ground Cable
● The correct gauge cable should be used for both the power and the ground connections to
the amplier.
● The power cable should be taken directly from the battery. Rubber grommets should be used
when passing through any bulkheads to prevent the cable from becoming chaffed or cut.
● The correct size of fuse must be tted within 18” of the battery and before the cable passes
through the bulk head
● It is vital that a fuse / circuit breaker (of at least equal value to the one tted on the amplier)
is placed inline with the power cable and is no further than eighteen inches away from the
battery.
● Please ensure that the fuse is not tted until the entire installation procedure is complete.
● The two tables below are to help you decide on what cable is correct for you. The rst
enables you to select the size of cable depending on the length required. The second will
help you convert the cable size from American Wire Gauge to Metric if you need to.
● The amplier ground should be connected directly to the chassis of the vehicle, to bare metal.
● The cable length should be kept to an absolute minimum.
ED7400
● Minimum 10 AWG power / ground cable should be used
ED7800 / 71200 / 71600
● Minimum 8 AWG power / ground cable should be used
ED72500
● Minimum 4 AWG power / ground cable should be used
Remote Turn On
● A minimum of 18 gauge cable should be used for this connection.
● The cable should be run with exactly the same care and attention as the power cable and
taken back to the source (headunit) and joined to the remote cable provided.
● If the source (headunit) does not have a remote turn on cable then a 12v supply should be
used. This will require a switch to be tted inline to enable the amplier to be turned on and
off. Remember that if this switch is left on you will atten the car battery.
RCA Cables
● Depending on the model number of your amplier and the number of speakers you wish to
power you will have to run either one or two RCA cables from the source to the amplier.
● Please take extra care when running these cables from the source to the amplier. Ensure
that they are placed away from all items that can generate any interference, wiring
harnesses etc.
● It is recommended that the RCA cables should be run on opposite sides of the car to the
previously installed power cables if possible, to avoid the cable picking up interference.
