Engine battery wiring

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I installed a Victron BMV 712e last summer and only monitor the house battery. I have now run a wire to the engine compartment. My question is which stud would you recommend I use to connect the engine battery to the BMV? Looks like positive cables go from the AGM to a positive buss bar or relay, another from that device to a 125-A fuse block, from there to the loads, and another feed from the charger, I presume, to the buss. The easiest stud to tap is the near one in the photo on the positive buss.
