Title: Powerlet wiring
Post by: Motorhobo on May 04, 2014, 09:35:41 AM

I finally found the spare powerlet plug I lost ages ago -- can someone tell me whether this is right? I assume it's hot=tip and ground=sleeve....

I'm planning on splicing into a Battery Tender adapter cord I have lying around -- not planning on putting a fuse inline.

Thanks for any info --

Van

Correct, don't forget a inline fuse.
