I am looking at how guys wire up your Terrovas. I have done it before but I am not sure I did it correctly so I am looking to here how others have done it.

Gage Wire?
1 or 2 breakers and size?
With or without plug?
Type of plug?

Thanks and have a good day.

Unless cables are over 20' long 6 gauge is best. Use one 60amp breaker. It is nice to have a plug so that you can disconnect the power when not using it. Marinco plugs seem to hold up the best.

The breaker goes at the battery end.
