POWER CONNECTIONS
Before installing the amplifier,
disconnect the negative (ground) wire
from the vehicle’s battery. This will prevent
accidental damage to the system, the vehicle
and your person during installation.

wire. 4 AWG is the only recommended power
wire size for this amplifier.
If you are installing the 1000/1 with other
amplifiers and wish to use a single main power
wire, use 2 AWG or 1/0 AWG main power wire
(depending on the overall current demands of all
the amplifiers in the system). This 2 AWG or
1/0 AWG power wire should terminate into
a distribution block mounted as close to the
amplifiers as possible and should connect to the
1000/1 with 4 AWG power wire.
Note: that smaller AWG numbers mean bigger
wire and vice-versa (1/0 AWG is biggest, 2 AWG
is smaller, then 4 AWG, then 8 AWG, etc.).

To connect the power wires to the amplifier,
first back out the set screw on the top of the
amplifier, using the supplied 2.5 mm hex wrench.
Strip 1/2 inch (12 mm) of insulation from the
end of each wire and insert the bare wire into the
receptacle on the front panel of the amplifier,
seating it firmly so that no bare wire is exposed.
While holding the wire in place, tighten the set
screw firmly, taking care not to strip the head
of the screw.

The ground connection should be made
using 4 AWG wire and should be kept as short
as possible, while accessing a solid piece of sheet
metal in the vehicle. The surface of the sheet
metal should be sanded at the contact point to
create a clean, metal-to-metal connection between
the chassis and the termination of the ground
wire. For optimal grounding, we recommend
the use of a JL Audio ECS master ground
lug (XB-MGLU). Alternatively, a sheet metal
screw or bolt can be used with a star washer.

Any wires run through metal barriers (such as
firewalls), must be protected with a high quality
insulating grommet to prevent damage to the
insulation of the wire. Failure to do so may result
in a dangerous short circuit.

Many vehicles employ small (10 AWG -
6 AWG) wire to ground the battery to the vehicle
chassis and to connect the alternator’s positive
connection to the battery. To prevent voltage
drops, these wires should be upgraded to 4
AWG (or larger) when installing a 1000/1v2.

FUSE REQUIREMENTS
It is absolutely vital that the main power
lead to the amplifier(s) in the system be fused
within 18 inches (45 cm) of the positive battery
post connection. The fuse value at each power
wire should be high enough for all of the
equipment being run from that power wire.
If only the 1000/1v2 is being run from that power
wire, we recommend a 100A ANL fuse be used.

No fuse is required directly before the
amplifier power connection. If one is desired,
we recommend the use of a 100A ANL fuse for
each 1000/1v2.
