- Krag (B+): Connect a heavy-gauge power cable (e.g., 8-gauge or thicker, depending on total system power) directly from the positive terminal of the vehicle's battery to the amplifier's B+ terminal. Install an in-line fuse holder with an appropriate fuse (not supplied) within 18 inches (45 cm) of the battery.
- Grond (GND): Connect a heavy-gauge ground cable of the same gauge as the power cable from the ampVerbind die GND-terminaal van die verskaffer met 'n skoon, ongeverfde metaaloppervlak op die voertuig se onderstel. Verseker 'n goeie elektriese verbinding.
