12V Connector Box

This is the case for a 12v connector box, it fits panel mount connectors like Anderson PowerPoles, 12V cigarette lighter sockets, 12v USB adapters, etc. Mix and match panel mounts as you like.

If you don't understand electrical safety, fuses, & wire gauge, don't build this project. First, go get your amateur radio license and learn some stuff on basic electrical wiring and safety. Get an Elmer to help you!

I wire a Anderson PowerPole pigtail about one foot long through the small rectangle hole on the side. You may install a zip tie on the inside of the box as a strain relief to help keep the wire from pulling on internal connections. This pigtail is a good place for an inline fuse. (see cover variant)

From battery pigtail wire, connect the switch and fuse in series to the (+ red) & (- black) banana posts. Next, connect all panel mounts in parallel to the banana posts. (See schematic diagram).

Mount the higher current panel mount devices close to the banana posts. This helps
