First, let me say I am very grateful to this site and forum...especially for the questions, advice and education I have gained from it.
I am currently working on my panel and wiring. I have a question on the master switch. From my reading of bob nuckolls I believe I need a 2-3. I am trying to confirm this and how to wire this up. I have the PP alternator. Do I run the field wire from the PP alt to the master switch?
My initial thinking is to use a separate switch for the alt and master, just a simple on/off switch for each. I suppose on the master switch one wire would go to the main bus and the other to the battery contactor. Again, I have reading and studying the nuckolls book but all his diagrams show the b/c alternator/regulator....so my wiring diagram would be a little different with the pp alt internally regulated.
please advise.
