I'm getting closer to getting the rewire sorted but I have another I think I know the answer to it question.

Master switch (Bluesea M series) with a Engine and Leisure + cable to each terminal, terminal 1-2 (plus forwarding terminals 3-4 ), probably 1.5m away from the battery.

I wanted to locate my ACR above master switch but is it ok to link the ACR on the master switch terminals 1-2 rather then another cable run to the battery terminals? It would mean 6" of cable rather then 1.5m each.

Also I assume it's ok to link my solar positive to the leisure terminal 2 rather then another cable run to the battery terminal.

Battery terminals are fused before you suggest it ;)

Cheers

Yes but if the battery terminals have "mega fuses" you may need to fit more a appropriately rated fuse in the connection for the solar system, which is presumably not plumbed in with battery cable.

I'd concur with all of that :encouragement:
