Hey guys

wanting to wire up a few things that would only get power when the car is on or in acc mode (like battery volt meter and a few switches and so on) thinking of using a piggy back fuse like this: https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?m...2F272824895241question is does anyone know which fuse slots I could use that would only give power when in acc or car on?

Hi,

I run a relay to a separate fuse panel. This way all my add ons are kept separate from the cars main electricals. I've probably over complicated things a bit.

The relays and circuit breakers are located between the air filter and the brake booster. The fuse panel is located next to my left foot on the driver's side. The larger circuit breaker runs to the back of the car into a smaller fuse panel that runs my fridge, a couple of USB charging ports and the lights at the back of the car.

I used the same green wire from beside the brake booster as I posted on your question about Always on Volt Metre.

There are probably better ways to do this, but this works for me.

Psydesign ,

I am also looking for the best fuse slot for almost the same purpose. I'm currently using the 7.5A ACC fuse slot as all the empty ones are always ON.
