DIY Electrical Fuse box!

[jcx03]

Recently started adding more and more accessories and everything is running with premade wires with switches & fuses with relays.

Watched the Overland bound videos and was super confused at first, but slowly, everything made more and more sense. Hoping someone can double check my work.

Does this look correct?

Also, with the negative ground, can i turn the accessory on with the car off.

The grey "12v" line coming from the bottom of the fuse panel should actually come from the top of the panel if that's a negative wire. What is the yellow box?

Yeah, do you have a higher res drawing? It's a bit hard to tell what's going on there.

This is what I'm doing. My setup is going to be considerably more complicated than what you've got in the drawing, but if you're familiar with any electrical diagrams, it should make sense.

What I'm going to be doing will be SLIGHTLY different than this, but overall, it's pretty much going to be the same thing.

This is almost the exact same setup I have in my expedition trailer.

The two main differences between what's above, and what is going in my X, is that I have a combined 6 relay/6 fuse box to run my lights, and a seperate 10 fuse box we'll be putting in the back of the X to run all my interior electrical accessories. I also bought a 5 outlet dc panel instead of a 3 outlet. And no switches in the rear yet.
