Positive terminal for compressor and winch

Hi all,

I’m looking to install an on board compressor (arb twin) and a winch.

Which of the posts on the positive terminal should be used for these loads? My dual battery uses the b+ terminal, but that it already pretty heavily loaded with terminals for the uhf, spotlights, charger etc, probably beyond fords 2.5mm recommendation.

Thanks,

JP

On the post would be the best one for load.
Move the lighter load gear elsewhere

I'm using terminals as below as they are the most accessible.

Just do not use the one with the 225 amp mega fuse on is all and the other side of that fuse which could be used is far to difficult to utilise with large cable.
