LC Current Limit Wiring
LOCK
Off position where no accessories will work, and steering is also likely
locked
Cranks the engine on and reverts to ON position.
ACCESSORY
Accessories are given power such as radio and some other small
electronics.
ON
START
Turns on all your electronics. The key will default into this position after
cranking in START. Splicing of fuse block will need to be live when the
key is in reverting back to this position
Review your vehicle’s fuse layout diagram to identify a fuse location that is live when the
vehicle is running with the alternator. Key positions in the ignition are typically lock, accessory,
on, and start.
The DC-DC battery chargers feature 50% current limiting from the rated specification when
connecting the LC Terminal to a 12V source. Current Limiting is instant and recommended to
be connected to the same location as the D+ ignition cable. Alternatively, you can toggle
current limiting to your liking by connecting the LC terminal to starter battery positive terminal.
In this fashion, current limiting will always take until removing the LC wire from the battery
terminal to revert to the normal amp rating. Use 18-16AWG copper cable for the LC terminal
and you may need to splice your own connections for the other cable end depending on your
connection point.
You may need to test the fuse location by checking the voltage
with a multi-meter and making sure it’s live only when the vehicle
is in the Start/Run position. This will help in identifying where to
connect if the fuse layout does not have an IGN position. The
easiest connections when splicing can be made when using a
fuse holder splice connector.
