Honestly I've never messed with a battery switch, but I would think you'd put it in line after the breaker so the breaker didn't see any spikes when you turn the switch on...so it would go battery -> breaker -> switch -> panel. Again, I've never installed a battery switch so maybe other ppl will chime in.franner11 said:OK guys, pretty simple question:
I have purchased a blue sea main switch (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00445KFZ2/ref=oh_o01_s00_i01_details) to turn off power to the fuse panel when I'm done using my boat. If I don't have one of these installed, the lights on my fuse panel will remain on at all times.
That said, considering I will have a circuit breaker installed on the positive main line from the battery at about 7-12 inches away from the battery, do I simply put the main switch after the circuit breaker, or do I need to install another circuit breaker after the main switch before the fuse panel? Just want to do this correctly....
