GHD,
must have some connections between channels. I'll cross that bridge later if I have problems.
I'm fairly certain that you'll be crossing that bridge in the future.
I'd like confirmed is the TIU fuse thing. My understanding is they have a 10 amp fuse. That says to me you can pass 10 amps using one channel or 10 amps devided up among the 4. Correct?
Each TIU channel is designed to handle a continuous 10 amp draw and each TIU channel has one 20 amp fast-blow fuse on each channel. However, the primary purpose of those fuses is to protect the TIU, not your engines.
It's prudent to have a 10 amp fast-blow fuse or 10 amp quick-acting circuit breaker installed in the Hot wire between each transformer output and the TIU channel input that it services.
