Thanks. You are the second person in this message thread who has
recommended the book "The 12 Volts Bible for Boats". I will definitely
take a look of this book one more time.

And I coat all connections with liquid tape.


Does the liquid tape replace the use of heat shrink tube for wiring
connection and replace the use of grease for connections on battery
terminals? I cannot quite picture the use of this products.

I heat shrink the Ancor swedge connectors and then coat the connection with
liquid tape. Makes a better seal. You can also use pvc tape and coat it
with PVC glue. Melts the tape together. As to your other question about
books. Most books are not going to give wiring diagrams. They are going to
tell you how to trouble shoot the circuit, and figure out which wire goes
where. Since my degree is electrical engineering, I do not have the book so
can not personally vouch for the book, but has been recommended for years.
