Couple of questions if I may please

Post by meggles »

Been finishing the wiring in the van. Just a couple of things I can't find the answer to so hoping you good folk could help me:
1) I am NOT wiring the fridge up to 12v so do I just leave the 87 connection on the relay (RM12f) without a connection?
2) I am assuming the connection from the ignition switch to the 85 connection on the relay should be a switched live?
3) On the battery condition gauge there is only one wire connected up. Looking at the back of the unit the connection/terminal which does not have a wire connected is on the right hand side. It has obviously had a wire connected at some time because the remnants are there. Which terminal on the back of the zig unit does this connection need to be connected to?
Any help most appreciated.

Incidentally, if there's anybody in the York area who is competent regarding electrickery, and would like to check the installation for me please get in touch. Don't mind paying to make sure everything is OK. The electrician I had lined up cannot help me now!
Many thanks
