Working on a complete build of a 14ft aluminum with side console and have a quick question about wire gauge. Here's my plan, correct me where you think I might be wrong. Battery will be stern mount. Negative fuse block at stern. 12 gauge wire from battery to console mounted fuse block. 16 gauge wire from fuse block to fused switch panel on dash. 16 gauge from switches to accessories (lights, bilge, lighter, radio, etc).
So here's a couple questions. With a fuse block at the helm, do I need a separate negative bus block at helm or will negative on the fuse block work? Are my gauges of wire correct?
