Hi,
In the process of obtaining the kit for a dual battery install & have a question about the circuit breakers between the Redarc unit and the batteries.
Using a Redarc SBI212 - standard install with override (http://www.redarc.com.au/handy-hints...c_sbi_install/)
I plan to use Blue Sea Systems 7149 187-Series Circuit Breakers (200A) between the redarc unit and the batteries. Each terminal on these CBs is designated Line and Load respectively.
I had planned to connect as follows: Main Battery --> [CB#1 (Line), CB#1 (Load)] --> SBI212 --> [CB#2 (Line), CB#2 (Load)] --> Aux Battery. I had not considered the role of Line vs Load when using the SBI override to allow starting from the AUX battery. Is this an issue (ie the starter motor load would be connected to the Line side of the Circuit breakers)?
Thanks,
Steve
